It's the beginning of a timeless play The world's out your window And the skies are grey Caught in the middle between quick and slow The best you can hope for Is a worthy cameo Every day's a struggle just to be heard You keep lookin for an answer But the lines are blurred Life's still a riddle and no-one knows If the clock's gonna stop When the cruel wind blows Who's gonna carry the load Headin down that lonesome road Another mile of misery And no-one there to wait for me Why'd you have to make it so hard Can't solve a puzzle without a clue There's no holdin back the tide When it breaks on through There's a river that twists and turns And a fire in the sunset That slowly burns Who's gonna carry the load Headin down that lonesome road Another mile of misery And no-one there to wait for me Who's gonna carry the load Headin down that lonesome road There's darkness over the land But I'll never understand Why you had to make it so hard (J.
