[Verse 1]
I hit the ground on foreign land, they tied me up in chain
Put between the walls who spoke to many a broken man
Men who never had a hope, whom love had left to pine
It's a long and lonesome state of mind
[Verse 2]
When they steal your freedom's when your spirit starts to fray
Memories of a love you held fade from day to day
In the only darkness where shadows intertwine
It's a long and lonesome state of mind
[Verse 3]
Long at sea I seem to be, the ramble is my home
From heart to heart, each lover seems to crash upon the stone
I'm not the same as I once was, nor will I be again
It's a long and lonesome state I'm in
It's a long and lonesome state I'm in
