the road:

it’s quiet on the road tonight
and it’s a long, long road
dusty and winding
it’s a hard, hard road
i’ll travel it alone

i fell off the wagon
i fell off for you
and now you’re here
offering me a ride
i smile, but no thanks
i need to walk awhile

it’s lonely on the road tonight
such a long, long road
rocky and climbing
it’s a hard, hard road
but i must go alone

you head off down the road
you head off on your way
and i’m left lingering
watching you fade
i smile, so weakly
i need to live without you for a while

and i’m on the road tonight
it’s such a long, long road
full of good intentions
it’s a hard, hard road
leading me back to myself
