The Cryan' Shames

The Cryan' Shames is an American garage rock group from Hinsdale, Illinois. They originally formed as The Travelers, with founding members Tom Doody ("Toad"), Gerry Stone ("Stonehenge"), Dave Purple ("Grape") of The Prowlers, Denny Conroy and Jim Fairs from The Roosters, Jim Pilster ("J.C. Hooke", so named because he was born without a left hand and wore a hook), and Bill Hughes. In 1966, upon learning that another band already had the name The Travelers, they needed to find another name; J.C. Hooke remarked that their difficulty in doing so was "a cryan' shame," and thus named the band. more »

Now I'm travlin' homeward bound
I feel the sun that burns the ground
The mud the sky and in between
A distant thought of yesterday's dream
I was lonely when 
I was lonely then

Traveling at a rapid pace
A friendly smile a familiar face
Can it be a voice I hear
Far away and yet so near?
I was lonely when 
I was lonely then

[Chorus:]
You're still a part of yesterday's dream
I'm traveling now towards something unseen

If you should wonder 
Where I'm going to follow me

Traveling at a rapid pace
A friendly smile a familiar face
Can it be a voice I hear
Far away and yet so near?
I was lonely when
I was lonely then

[Chorus] 

If you should wonder 
Where I'm going to follow me

The sands of time run out so fast
No thinking future, no lasting past,
Darkness in a world of light
Loneliness most every night
I was lonely when 
I was lonely then [Repeat x 5]
