This Lonely Road

I set out on the 1st of May

I had a hunger in the worst of ways

a hunger for a love, a love like you.

I rounded a corner in the morning light

almost blinded— almost lost my sight

there on the shoulder was you.

Oh my Lord...

I got a feeling

you and I’ve been down this lonely road

this lonely road before.

I got a feeling

you and I’ve been down this lonely road

this lonely road before.

I pulled over in a cloud of dust

your hand-drawn sign said “anywhere or bust”

but oh, that smile.

I don’t recall what state I was in

but your eyes told me that you needed a friend—

just too damn many miles.

Oh my Lord...

I got a feeling

you and I been down this lonely road

this lonely road before.

I got a feeling

you and I’ve been down this lonely road

this lonely road before.

And it’s almost sundown

can’t ever find the right town

to call our home just to call our home.

And it’s almost sundown

can’t ever find the right town

to call our home just to call our home.

(Instrumental)

Well the seasons change and the road goes by

there in the front seat with an Ice Cream pie

and a coffee: It’s just you and I.

We count the markers we count the signs

you count me yours and I'm gonna count you mine

whatever side of the solid line.

Oh my Lord, say...

I got a feeling

you and I been down this lonely road

this lonely road before.

I got a feeling

you and I been down this lonely road

this lonely road before.

I got a feeling

you and I been down this lonely road

this lonely road before.

I got a feeling

you and I been down this lonely road

this lonely road before.
