Jimmie Rodgers' Dream
Emotional Wilderness: Hearts Turned to Stone
Lyrics
I'm out here in the darkness
I find myself in a state of darkness.
I hear the howling wind
I perceive the sound of a strong, gusty wind.
Sometimes I sit and wonder
Sometimes, I contemplate and question.
Will I ever see love again?
I ponder if I will experience love once more.
Looking for an answer
Searching for a solution or explanation.
Not an easy thing to find
It's not an easy quest.
Out here in the wilderness
In a desolate and untamed environment.
With questions on my mind
My mind is filled with unanswered questions.
Now the sun is rising higher in the sky
The sun is ascending in the sky.
The morning light is crawling
The morning light is slowly spreading.
From the darkness of the night
Emerging from the darkness of the night.
The raindrops keep on falling
Raindrops persistently fall.
There is no light of day
No daylight is visible.
The sadness deep inside me
A profound sadness dwells within me.
Doesn't seem to go away
This sadness seems persistent.
And there's no way out, no road home
There's no escape, no way back.
I'm lost in doubt and I'm all alone
I'm engulfed in uncertainty and isolation.
The time has come
The moment has arrived.
When love is done
Love has reached its conclusion.
Hearts have finally turned to stone
Hearts have solidified into stone.
No more bright tomorrow, only sad today
No promising future, only a somber present.
My heart is filled with sorrow
My heart is burdened with sorrow.
The pain won't go away
The pain persists.
Try to keep from crying
Attempting to hold back tears.
All night long and through the day
Throughout the night and day.
Lost and all alone
Adrift and utterly alone.
Hearts have finally turned to stone
Hearts have solidified into stone.
No more bright tomorrow, only sad today
No promising future, only a somber present.
My heart is filled with sorrow
My heart is burdened with sorrow.
The pain won't go away
The pain persists.
Just tryin' to keep from crying
Simply trying to refrain from crying.
All night long and through the day
All night long and throughout the day.
Lost and all alone
Adrift and utterly alone.
Hearts have finally turned to stone
Hearts have solidified into stone.
