Saw a girl on the street from my home

Like a fire on the hillside she shown

And I knew right then that my best days were gone

And Id been, been in the lowlands too long



Oh Ive been in the lowlands too long

Oh, I know, I know that I should go

And Ive been in the lowlands too long



This is not how it was at the start

Theres a doubt and a blame in my heart

And its no one else, no fault but my own

And Ive been in the low lands too long



Oh Ive been in the lowlands too long

Oh, I know, I know that I should go

And Ive been in the lowlands too long



What is this weight in my mind

And what is this new sense of time

Its the open fields and the friends that are gone

And Ive been in the lowlands too long



I can sing out at all sing a song

I can do nothing all the day long

But I cant so right and I know Im wrong

And Ive been in the lowlands too long



Oh Ive been in the lowlands too long

Oh, I know, I know that I should go

And Ive been in the lowlands too long
