(Rodney Crowell, Will Jennings)

|
Yes I had a woman love me gave her what there was there of me
|
It was good as it could be
|
Then I heard a wild world calling, I saw a lone star falling
|
Caught a song and set it free
|
Many a long and lonesome highway lies before us as we go
|
In the end I'll do it my way
|
Look for me where the four winds blow
|
I believe in love and danger
|
I believe that truth is stranger
|
I believe that fear is much too strong
|
I believe the best will find me when I leave the rest behind me
|
Out on the highway I'm on my own
|
Every night's a new beginning every day the world keeps spinning
|
Sometimes it's hard to stand upon my own
|
To the east the moon comes showing to the west the storm clouds growing
|
Though by myself I'm not alone
|
My father on his deathbed told me there's really nothing left to hold me
|
Though I was there he died alone
|
It's gonna take a fast train leaving to shake my world of grieving
|
Guess I'll go until it's gone
|
Many a long and lonesome highway lies before us as we go
|
In the end I'll do it my way look for me where the four winds blow
|
