wendell burton - lonely boy in kansas lyrics

night falls on a lonely boy in kansas
riding down the road on his four by four
he’s heading for a bar where he’ll take his chances
maybe tonight there’ll be something more

overhead, the stars light up like christmas
shining down from the edge of an endless sky
pulling off the road, he stops to listen
to the sound as the wind blows by
and it seems to cry

as the moon sweeps low across the heavens
and the prairie sways like a golden sea
there beneath thе glory of the sky
an unexpectеd wonder fills his eyes
suddenly it seems to him that he could almost see
the heart of eternity

every night it’s the same old, smoky barroom
hanging out with a bunch of the local boys
checking out some new girl in the barroom
as she sways through the jukebox noise

but tonight there’s a strange mood blowing through him
like the prairie wind on this starry night
and a still small voice is calling to him
asking, “boy, is everything alright?”
and it isn’t quite
as the moon sweeps low across the heavens
and the prairie sways like a golden sea
deep within his heart, he hears what seems
the echoes of a thousand desperate dreams
even through his tears, he could almost see
the heart of eternity

(eternity)

like a little child, he stands there
arms upheld as if to say
“loving father, i surrender
help me now to find my way”

and the moon sweeps low across the heavens
as the prairie sways like a golden sea
all at once, he feels a presence there
an overwhelming peace that fills the air
looking up into his eyes, beholding finally
the lord of eternity

(eternity)
(eternity)
(eternity)
(eternity)
(eternity)
(eternity)
