Lyrics

Verse 1
Cruel cruel world, must I go on?
Cruel cruel world, I’m moving on.
I’ve been living so fast, I’ve been living so wrong.
Cruel cruel world, I’m gone...

Desert roads, desert plains, I have seen so much pain.
Now I see into the eyes of a girl, no more, no more cruel world.
On a dusty road I saw a vapor light, was it a mirage?
I don’t know, but it seemed right, in felt mission, I felt trust.
I knew then that I must go to her, away from this cruel world.


---

Chorus
Cruel cruel world, I’m leaving you behind,
Chasing the light that I’ve been trying to find.
Through the dust, through the storms, through the endless night,
I’ll keep moving on till I’m holding her tight.


---

Verse 2
Shadows fall as the sun dips low,
I hear the whispers of winds that blow.
Memories haunt me, ghosts of my past,
But hope is rising, free at last.

Her silhouette against the fading sky,
A quiet promise, no more lies.
Every step takes me closer to peace,
In her presence, the restless storms cease.


---

Chorus
Cruel cruel world, I’m leaving you behind,
Chasing the light that I’ve been trying to find.
Through the dust, through the storms, through the endless night,
I’ll keep moving on till I’m holding her tight.

Bridge
And when night comes with its heavy veil,
I’ll remember the roads, the trials, the trail.
But I move forward, heart in hand,
To a love that I finally understand.


---

Chorus (Final)
Cruel cruel world, I’ve left you behind,
In her eyes, a new world I find.
Through the dust, through the storms, through the endless night,
I’ve found my way to her gentle light.
