that lonesome road

these are the only words that can describe my feelings today.

that lonesome road

walk down that lonesome road, all by yourself.

dont turn your head back over your shoulder.

and only stop to rest yourself when the silver moon

is shining high above the trees.

if i had stopped to listen once or twice

if i had closed my mouth and opened my eyes

if i had cooled my head and warmed my heart

id not be on this road tonight.

carry on.

dont feel sorry for yourself.

it doesnt save you from a troubled mind.

walk down that lonesome road, all by yourself.

dont turn your head back over your shoulder.

and only stop to rest yourself when the silver moon

is shining high above the trees.
