A HUNDRED MILES OF BAD ROAD
|
It's a long, long way from where I am,
|
To where I ought to be.
|
I can't remember where I made this turn,
|
Into no-man's land, as far as I can see
|
Stranded being and a-broken down,
|
With only one way from this place.
|
I always find the strength I need,
|
In the arms of my Angel and my saving grace
|
And I ain't sure how you carry me,
|
Through the darkest hours, so easily.
|
And I ain't sure how you carry this load,
|
Down a hundred miles of bad road
|
I handed you what was left of me,
|
Prayin' it would be enough
|
This black and blue and a-worn out heart,
|
Was empty 'til you filled it up with your love
|
And I ain't sure how you carry me,
|
Through the darkest hours, so easily
|
And I ain't sure how you carry this load,
|
Down a hundred miles of bad road
|
Is all I'll ever see
|
If there's an easier way, it ain't shown itself to me
|
But the burden ain't as heavy as it used to be
|
And I ain't sure how you carry me,
|
Through the darkest hours, so easily
|
And I ain't sure how you carry this load
|
I ain't sure how you carry me,
|
Through the darkest hours, so easily
|
And I ain't sure how you carry this load,
|
Down a hundred miles of bad road
|
Down a hundred miles of bad road
|
Yeah
|
Yeah, down a hundred miles of bad road
|
