Sweet Comfort Album: Hearts Of Fire Track: The Road
The Road Lyrics
By Bryan Duncan
I'm livin' it out on the road
And I've got so far to go
The one that I love is at home
And she is a part of me
I stare at the road 'til my eyes turn red
The book on my lap
And the thought in my head of you
Somethin' keeps drivin' me on
When I just don't want to go
I carry this feelin' inside
That nobody want to know
So why would you choose to be using me
I've never been quite what they want to see from you
The road is so demanding, Lord
I can't give more than I have
I know how much I need your love
I can't give more than you've given me
And I stand in some corner backstage
And eat what's not good for me
I sleep in another hotel
With the radio on
And I dream of my home where I belong
And I didn't just travel this far for a song or two
But I'll do it for you
The road is so demanding, Lord
I can't give more than I have
I know how much I need your love
I can't give more than you've given me
Well I know that the number one thing
Is spending my time with you
And this road gives me plenty of time
To hear what you have to say
Sometimes you don't speak a word at all
But here I am waiting to answer your call to me
And I hope you can see
I'm out on the road
