"Lost In The Crowd" lyrics

"Lost In The Crowd"

She stared into my eyes
And she said, don't follow me
Where I'm going, that's no world for you
She said, it doesn't mean
That it wasn't real for me
You just don't understand
This is the hardest thing I'll ever do

And as she walked away
I followed anyway
But the night was like a shroud
She was lost in the crowd
Lost in the crowd
Lost in the crowd

If I was thinking clear
If I was thinking right
I never would have let her out my sight
And when she left I stood there
Like my feet were made of clay
I was lost for words to say
I couldn't think she'd really go away

And as I hesitated
She melted away
The night was like a shroud
She was lost in the crowd
Lost in the crowd
Lost in the crowd

And as she walked away
I followed anyway
But the night was like a shroud
She was lost in the crowd
Lost in the crowd
Lost in the crowd
