Richard Clapton - Thorn In My Saddle

When I look up in to the darkness
With the night sky over me,
I can feel a cold wind blowing,
From out across the sea

I've got the freeway road confusion
I was bound to be confined
To be lost and disillusioned
By these ideas in my mind

I got a thorn in my saddle
Now if love don't prove the answer
Gonna find myself locked in
Just a prisoner of darkness
My light threatened by the wind

Mama holds me in the half light
With her reassuring smile
And she gives me all the strength I need
For this journey into night
