The road I was on Was not familiar ground Night became my enemy Every sight and every sound When I saw those lights Like candles in the mist As a moth unto a flame I could not resist I saw them in the night Like crystals On the breeze Showing me the way A journey through the trees I took the easy path If I only I had known? For I was but a fool 'Cause I'm never going' home I tried to turn around Too late to count the cost Nothing seemed the same The road for home was lost I wander all my days Through the valleys and the streams Lost and never found A shadowland of dreams If you see the crystal wind Turn and close your eyes Or Jack the Lantern might Take you by surprise I saw them in the night Like crystals On the breeze Showing me the way A journey through the trees I took the easy path If I only I had known? For I was but a fool 'Cause I'm never going' home
