Man In The Wilderness (Expanded Version)

Written by tommy shaw

Lead vocals by tommy shaw

Another year has passed me by

Still i look a myself and cry

What kind of man have i become?

All of the years i've spent in search of myself

And i'm still in the dark

'cause i can't seem to find the light alone

Sometimes i feel like a man in the wilderness

I'm a lonely soldier off to war

Sent away to die - never quite knowing why

Sometimes it makes no sense at all

Ten thousand people look my way

But they can't see the way that i feel

Nobody even cares to try

I spend my life and sell my soul on the road

And i'm still in the dark

'cause i can't seem to find the light alone

Sometimes i feel like a man in the wilderness

I'm a lonely soldier lost at sea

Drifting with the tide

Never quite knowing why

Sometimes it makes no sense at all

(i'm alive)

Looking for love i'm a man with emotion

(and my heart's on fire)

I'm dying of thirst in the middle of the ocean

I'm alive!
