Emmylou Harris - The Road Lyrics

I can still remember every song you played
Long ago when we were younger
and we rocked the night away
How could I see a future then
where you would not grow old?
Such fire in our belly, such a hunger in souls
I guess I've grown to love you in those words so often tired
Seen that we were traveling under some old lucky sign
I know I didn't say it then and no one was to blame
But the road we shared together
once will never be the same

Hey all along the way
Won't be coming round again
Hey was a song I played
And on the wings of a song, I'll fly away
I wondered in the wilderness for a while I was so lost
To everything there is a season
and every blessing has it's cost
So I took what you left to me and put it to some use
When looking for an answer
with those three chords and the truth
I come down from the mountain
I come walking in your shoes
I was taken for a glambler when I had no more to loose
For he put me on that path and how could I refuse
And I would spend my whole life out here
working on the blues
Hey... Ay hey. Hey. Ay. Hey. Hey

So I carried on, you can't be haunted by the past
People come people, go and nothing ever lasts
But I still think about you wonder where you are
Can you see me from some place
up there among the stars?
But down here under heaven there never was a chart
To guide our way across this crooked highway of the (part?)

And if it's only all about the journey in the end
On that road I'm glad I came to know my old friend
Hey all along the way
Won't be coming round again
Hey was a song I played
And on the wings of a song, I'll fly away. I'll fly away
