I lost everything
I fell out of a daydream
At the door of a long lost friend
And I cried aloud
Without an inch of pride
I knew that I had reached the end
An old and lonely man
Saw me sittin' on the curb
He reached out and took my hand
He said, "I know your song.
And I know your name.
And there was a time that I felt the same.
But it's a low, low road you've gotta roll down
Before you find your way, my friend.
And it's a high, high hill you've gotta climb up
Before you get to the top again."
I held on so dearly
To the wrong things in my life
But now I see so clearly
I was walking into my own knife
And you've got to get up off that street
Stop looking at your feet
And take a hold of something real
And this old man, took my hand
He looked at me and said, "Little girl, I understand
That it's a low, low road you've gotta roll down
Before you find your way, my friend.
And it's a high, high hill you've gotta climb up
Before you get to the top again."
And there was a time that I thought that I knew it all
And there was a place that I thought I could call my own
But it all came crashing down and I looked around
And I knew that things would never be the same
Low low road you've gotta roll down
Before you find your way, my friend
And it's a high, high hill you've gotta climb up
Before you get to the top again
Oh, it's a low low road you gotta roll down
Before you find your way, my friend
And it's a high, high hill you've gotta climb up
Before you get to the top again
'Cause it's a low, low road you gotta roll down
It's a low, low road
