FUGITIVE'S DREAM

Sir I am a pilgrim and a stranger in this land

Once I had a home here, my salvation was at hand

I lived in a fine home, I was respected and satisfied

I had two beautiful children and a kind and loving wife

Then one day a man came to town, a man with nothing and nowhere to go

He came to my door and mentioned something I'd done a long time ago

I allowed him into my home on his vow that nothing would be said

One night I rose from a dreamless sleep and I went to his bed

I watched as he lay sleeping, I reached out and touched his cheek

Felt a chill run through my bones and I fled into the street

I woke up in a motel room with the light rushin' in

Like someone had thrust open a door and closed it tight again

I tried to understand why I felt these things that I felt

And why I walked these streets at night a stranger to myself

Last night the same dream keeps coming around

I'm standing high in the green hills looking across to the outskirts of town

The night air fills my lungs, the wind sweeps around me so strong

Stars rise in a black endless sky, grow brighter and brighter then gone, gone, gone

@Michael. This song was NOT on Tracks; It bears a resemblance to another out take called "Richfield Whistle" recorded during the sane period, perhaps that is why you are confused.

It's well crafted song. Too Bad this was on the "Tracks" album!
