Distant Sun - Captain Beyond

Look at the light, babe, in the city

Won’t you look at it glowing now?

Too much grievin', look no pity

I cannot find a way to slow it down

Can’t you see that yellow road?

My sight is lessening with illusion

I’m so lost in this confusion

I got the fever a growing now

Had to find a distant sun

Feeling kind of lost, startin' to wonder

Can I look back with no regrets

Tryin' hard, no one to help me

I have to make or break away

Get in my car and I start to ride

Towards the things I need to feel

A mist is rising, can’t you see?

Closing gate, no way out for me

Can I find a distant sun to live in?

No way out now, babe, can’t you see?

So many people staring back at me

I see the closing gates and no way out now

I’m just floating down and down and down I go

Can’t you see that I’m living in confusion?

And I can’t find no way out, no, no

Now you’ve seen the lights of the city

Tell me what you’re thinkin' now

Did you see the grief and the pity?

Isn’t it enough to bring you down?

That yellow road doesn’t do any good, babe

You can’t escape from what you see

Everywhere you look is disaster

Ain’t no way to set us free?
