The Great Divide Lyrics

I parted ways with common sense,
It makes no difference, shadows still remain
And the cross I carried fell apart,
Now I carry an empty heart,
And I still feel like a stranger, and I think it's time to stop.
How many times can you wash your face in desert sand?
How many times can you try to pretend?

(Chorus)
I'd pretend and I'd lie just to be here by your side,
There ain't no way to cross the great divide
Every day, every night, I keep looking for a little light to shine on me.
Across the great divide

It's getting harder every year, but I got nothing left to fear.
I know you're coming home.
Scenes from yesterday come and go,
My anxiety starts to grow
And I just wanna know when it's time to end the show And how many times can you wash your face in a desert sand?

And all I know, all I know is to pretend.

(Chorus)
I'd pretend and I'd lie just to be here by your side,
There ain't no way to cross the great divide
Every day, every night, I keep looking for a little light
To shine on me, Across the great divide

(Guitar Solo)

(Chorus)
I'd pretend and I'd lie just to be here by your side,
There ain't no way to cross the great divide
Every day, every night, I keep looking for a little light
To shine on me, Across the great divide

Ohh, oh, oh, oh
Show me the way, yeah
Oh oh I keep looking for a little light
Across the great divide.
