I have screamed for mercy
I have learned the long goodbye
I'm soaked in controversy
I have moved to mystify you
I'm not a bitter man
I'm not a lucky man
I'm just a shadow across your mind

I've been kissed by lightening
I have brushed the hurricane
I have been divided
and I could be them all again
I'm not a bitter man
I'm not a lucky man
I'm just a moth cought in the flame

Tell me who I am
Tell me what you see
I can understand, if you're sick of me

I have cause to wonder
how I missed that grand parade
Did my boat slide under
as I turned to walk away
I'm not a bitter man
I'm not a lucky man
I'm just a horse left in the rain

I have screamed for mercy
I have learned the long goodbye
I'm steeped in controversy
I have moved to mystify you
I'm not a bitter man
I'm not a lucky man
I'm just a shadow across your mind

I'm not a bitter man
I'm not a lucky man
I'm just a shadow across your mind
I'm just a horse left in the rain
I'm just a horse left in the rain
