"The Road" lyrics

"The Road"

The road, it never changes, but the people always do
Tonight the time has come to tell you so
The path along the river side is sparkled now again
Stretching here to where God only knows
I'll always love you, girl, on that you can rely
There's nothing more or less you need to know
So, lady, you better head back in the crook of my old arm
And love me one more time before I go

A lonesome, lonesome highway
Out here thinking back on you
I'll let your warm love shield me from the cold
A melody and memory so shiny bright in these roads
Breathing, where's the rhythm of the road?
Early in the morning just before the sun comes up
You miss me making, all these around the stove
He'll touch you in the place where my own body used to be
And curse the day I left you on the road
