Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.

Really close, manxman. The category is right but the third word needs changed. This is one of the homophone clues. The actual word starts with a silent letter.

Yes, Bob thumbsup

Added hints for the last two. I also edited one of the clue words slightly. The two that remain have a similar theme. smile
