Lyrics:

Lost, trying to retrace my steps back home
I’m lost, like a dog on the side of the road
a dog on the side of the road
running lost in the evening rain
gettin’ kinda dark.

Lost, driving alone down strange side streets
You’re lost, with a map on the passenger seat
and one eye on the street
driving lost in the evening rain
sun’s all gone down now.

You don’t see that slippery curve
so you jerk the wheel in a sudden swerve
your headlights flood my glassy eyes
I’m blind
and you pass me by.
(I was thinking maybe we might collide.)

We all get lost, searchin’ for someplace of our own
everybody gets lost
so we set out and start to roam
like a dog on the side of the road
like a dog on the side of the road
just tryin’ to find home.
