"The Road" lyrics

4000 miles to just be still
Was it worth it
I said goodbye and I love you as well
I know you heard it

But the road has ways
Of taking away things that you know
The road has ways
Of saying you'll stay, but you don't
The road has ways of making mistakes

I am home now and I haven't called
I know you're hurting
I said goodbye and I love you as well
You're sure you heard it

But the road has ways
Of taking away things that you know
The road has ways
Of saying you'll stay, but you don't
The road has ways of making mistakes

It's now been years and I see your ring
In photos of you laughing
I couldn't be your shiny thing
But I hope you're happy

The road has ways
Of taking away things that you know
The road has ways
Of saying you'll stay, but you don't
The road has ways of making mistakes
