[This version is intrinsically different than the final and official "Boingo" version. Besides the obviously large lyric discrepancies, he replaces the one theme in this version with another shorter one.
Though they share the title and some lyrics and melody, the two versions are basically two completely different songs in ways.]
I'm standing all alone out in the pouring rain
I've never been lost like this
Don't know how I got here
I've never been lost like this
I've never been lost like this
I'm standing all alone out in the pouring rain
I've never been lost like this
Don't know how I got here, and I don't know why I stayed
I've never been lost like this
Isn't this a fine hello?
I've never been lost like this
I've never been lost like this
"Soul" Outtake (Original Version)
My blood is slowing down, I'm freezing in my veins
But I'm getting used to it
This place is not like anything I've seen before
The buildings move around, the houses have no doors
Strange that I could meet you here
I don't believe in ghosts or apparitions
Don't believe what I can't see
Living in a world of fallen angels
Something's watching over me
I've never been lost like this
But I wouldn't be happy anywhere else
(Happy anywhere else)
Nobody to tell us what to do
All by ourselves
(I've never been lost like this)
But I guess I'm happy
Anyways
And I don't know why I stayed
The poets all around are laughing in their graves
Must be something that I said
They think they're better just because their dead
Ooh, I don't believe in ghosts or apparitions
Don't believe what I can't see
Living in a world of fallen angels
Something's watching over me
I've never been lost like this
And I wouldn't be happy anywhere else
(Happy anywhere else)
Nobody to tell us what to do
All by ourselves
(I've never been lost like this)
But I guess I'm happy
Anyways
I've never been lost like this
But I guess I'm happy
I've never been lost like this
I've never been lost like this
But I guess I'm happy
I've never been lost like this
I've never been lost like this
But I guess I'm happy
"Boingo" Album version
And though it really isn't like me to complain
Think I'm getting used to it
I feel happy and I also feel bad
I've never been here but somehow I think I have
But I'm getting used to it
I've never been lost like this
But I wouldn't be happy anywhere else
Nobody to tell us what to do
All by ourselves
The poets all around are laughing in their graves
Must be something that I said
This place is not like anything I've seen before
The spirits move around, the houses have no doors
But I'm getting used to it
I've never been lost like this
But I wouldn't be happy anywhere else
Nobody to tell us what to do
All by ourselves
I wish I hadn't seen you go
It's always been a bitter pill
The broken mirror's broken still
The letters never made the post
A thousand more I never wrote
And here on dark unfriendly streets
I find the comfort that I seek
And I'm happy
And I've been happy
And I've been
I've never been lost like this
But I wouldn't be happy anywhere else
Nobody to tell us what to do
All by ourselves
I've never been lost like this
But I wouldn't be haaaaaaa....
