A thousand years I walked
With my shoes were torn
But my body was worn
Still I am, I am forlorn
But I searched so long in the sand
For my left and my right hand
Help me understand
Sun upon my back
Still I fight on
Still I have no home
The world a place to go
Oh I'm so alone
In the shade of the oasis
I met a new friend
And he told me about the end
And what's in store
And then he said to me
Do you live faithfully
Or are you thick as thieves
Within the dust and sand?
Still I fight on
Still I have no home
The world a place to go
No other place at all
Will I ever get out of this place?
Cause I'm so tired of the wind on my face
Don't leave me here alone in the dark
I need your hand to lead me out
