Dan Fogelberg - Exiles lyrics

We are exiles

Living undercover

Looking for another day to make it all work out.

Exiles

Standing in the shadows

We are exiles

Weary of the battles

Looking for another day to make it all work out.

You sit here

And I sit there

Looking at you used to be like looking in a mirror

But now it's dark

No light reflects

It never ends like one expects.

I don't know where we went wrong

If I knew that I'd never had to write this song

But here we stand

So far apart

Separate pieces of a

Broken heart

(We live like)

Chorus

Exiles...running from each other

We are exiles

Living undercover

Looking for another day to make it all work out.

Exiles

Standing in the shadows

We are exiles

Weary of the battles

Looking for another day to make it all work out.

You said you need time to think

But I just couldn't go on living on the brink

So now we take this frozen stance

In hopes that we'll find one more chance.

Different wants and different needs

Moving through our changes at such different speeds

I don't know why

And I don't know when

But somewhere we'll find love again.

(Repeat first half of chorus)

(Repeat chorus
