Prodigal Son Lyrics


Passing through this life with so much regret
I feel like I haven't got over it yet
It takes so long for these wounds to heal
I'm knockin' down walls, takin' my time
I gotta get outta here
Where will I go?
Who will I become?
I'm comin' on like an elephant gun
Reaching for the piece of mind that I can't find
The sun keeps fading away
Searching for a feeling that will never come
The return of the Prodigal Son
Last night the moon seemed to look so empty, yeah
I feel into a pit of despair
Going no where I never thought that these wounds would heal
I fell to my knees, the rain came down
I swear I could touch the sky

What have I done?
What was I sold?
Hear the pop of my elephant gun
Reaching for the piece of mind that I can't find
The sun keeps fading away
Searching for a feeling that will never come
The return of the Prodigal Son
Reaching for the piece of mind that I can't find
The sun keeps fading away
Searching for a feeling that will never come
The return of the Prodigal Son, the Prodigal Son
This time has just begun
I finally found a feeling
The return of the Prodigal Son
Let's go ahead and give 'em there money's worth

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Moran Lee "Dock" Boggs (February 7, 1898–February 7, 1971) was an influential old-time singer, songwriter and banjo player. His style of play, as well as his singing, is considered a unique combination of old-time Appalachian mountain music and the blues. Boggs is deemed by contemporary old-time musicians and performers as a seminal figure in old-time music, at least in part because of the appearance of two of his recordings from the 1920s, "Sugar Baby" and "Country Blues", on the influential Anthology of American Folk Music collection.
