In this town, one can be lost in the bright lights and city cars
Although the found become gods, they leave the clouds for the rest of us
So darling when my tale begins, make note of all the crooked grins, and waive the cost
As for all my mother's plans, just let her know she made a man that prays for the lost
We're all lost, too
From this ground, I can see all the leaves begin to fall
Things change, but when, and for how long
Don't ask these trees, they'll just shrug you off
So calmly grasp and take my hand, we'll take the world by storm and chance the rain and the fog
And as for all my father's plans, just let him know he made a man that prays for the lost
We're all lost, too
And these frowns we carry
Broken, but barely
Hopeless, but not for long
Leave these scars, no rescue
We won't forget you
And so on, we sing this song
We're all lost, too
In this town, one can be lost in the bright lights and city cars
Although the found become gods, they leave the clouds for the rest of us
So darling when my tale begins, make note of all the crooked grins, and waive the cost
As for all my mother's plans, just let her know she made a man that prays for the lost
We're all lost, too
And as for all my mother's plans, just let her know she made a man
Let her know she made a good man
And as for all my father's plans, just let him know he made a man
Let him know he made a good man
