That lonesome highway called me lord, I came runnin'
Searching for one truth, I found another
I watched my years pa** by me
Threw some cracked and dirty windshield
And the time flies let me tell you brother
When the sh** comes down, it can hang around
This is the life that can leave you cold
Out on the side of the lost highway
With no one left to hold
And a hard rain hit my shoulder blade
I was wonderin' what to do,
I thought about you
CHORUS
And the tears come down
Let loose this river of pain
And the water flowed
Washed away all the dirt and the stain
And the sun came out
Warmed my heart I want to live again
And there you were standing right in front of me
Was my heart so dark that I just could not see you at all
This road of life ain't straight and true
It's filled with twists and turns
And I've traveled down some side roads
And boys did I get burned
But I pulled up on my bootstraps
I was wondering what to do
When I thought about you
CHORUS
Every corner we go round
Another road begins
And the bridges we burn to the ground
They can't be built again
And there's some that I could count on
And there's some that made me blue
And then there was always you
CHORUS
