Lonely, Lonely Road

lyrics

A lonely, lonely road you’re on
This lonely, lonely road you’re on
The only, only only one
You crawl before you only run

The moon comes up before the sun

You learn a lot, you feel a ton

Then grow a bit, you rush to wait

Countdown the time until your fate.


This lonely, lonely road
Your lonely, lonely road.


You have a friend, or maybe some

You get a job until you’re done

Work down a list before it’s too late
Find a cause to celebrate


You birth a daughter, maybe son
Regret a lot of things you’d done
If you make it late, somehow you’ve won
Life beats and beats until there’s none

This lonely, lonely road
Your lonely, lonely road

You’d only wish you’d known
You might have taken it slow


When love chimed in
Life linchpin

Love chimed in

Loved and lost
Lonely, lonely road
