EJ O' Reilly - The Lost Name Lyrics

Dear God above, I feel ashamed
I watched a young man dying
Dear Father, I called him my friend
But watched the piercing poison arrow

Now somewhere in the distance
There's a mother who is calling
And somewhere there's a name
On a grave that's overgrown

Farewell to the darkness
He is resting and I am, but dying
Beware of the silence
That's when the haunting comes a-creeping

Now somewhere in the distance
There's a mother who is crying
And somewhere there's a name
That's all but forgotten
And someday, well my friend
I guess I'll be joining

For this old, lonely trail where I feel the pain
I feel I'm surely dying

Dear God above, This blinding heat
Was holding me
