Heart's A Lonely Hunter Lyrics

There's a fog upon the skyline 
Clouds my view 
And the city's cold and lonely 
Without you 

And so I set out upon the highway 
Bound to leave your memory behind 
And the prairie wind, it chills me to my bone 
And the heart's a lonely hunter all alone 

And the fields are rollin’ softly 
Across the plain 
And my eyes can see forever 
Through the pourin’ rain 

I could have sworn I heard your sweet voice callin’ 
'Bout a mile past the county line 
It was only just an echo in my soul 
And the heart's a lonely hunter all alone 

Drivin’ past the state line 
Change my state of mind 
Suddenly a free born man 
Headin’ through a small town 
Turn my life around 
No one has to understand 
Without a past 
To tie me to my shadow 
And to the last, I'll run my life alone, alone 

Now the sun is beatin’ softly 
On my skin 
And at last I feel emotion 
Beating deep within 

And for the first time I know for certain 
I can leave that girl behind 
And I cast a giant shadow as I roam 
And the hearts a lonely hunter 
Hearts a lonely hunter 
The hearts a lonely hunter all alone, all alone 
When you're all alone 
You're all alone 
When you're all alone
