Sittin in the twilight
I watch the street lamps come alive
In the august of the sunday
Lost in the by and by
Lost in the by and by
I dont want no obligation
I dont want no reasons why
I crave the stillness of the mountains
Let the sun set behind
I've been left behind
You can't find it in the books your read
You cant find it on the shelf
Its out there in the waves of grain
Out there and no where else
There and no where else
The moon high above my shoulder
The sun lingers in my eye
Still I wish I in the country lost in the by and by
Lost in the by and by
With the sun coming up before me
On the road Ive been going down
Searchin for my radio
For some old forgotten sound
Long forgotten now
In the early morning
The darkest of the dawn
I was standing still
While the world was moving on
The world was moving on
