This Old Dirt Road
Teary eyed and wandering down some old dirt road
a million thoughts run through my head, an awful heavy load
no destination in my mind, just thinking of the past
I see the sunset fade away, the days go by so fast
The cool breeze blows against my face, my tears fall to the ground
so quiet in this far off place, my thoughts the only sound
However did things get this way when all I've done is try?
My life it seems is so unfair, not understanding why
This old dirt road I wander on, I've been on several times
familiar in so many ways, i walk between the lines
subtle changes here and there, but basically the same
revisited so many times, I have to be to blame
what could it be that I have done, what and where and when ?
i try each time to save myself, yet here i am again
a lesson that I should have learned, yet still I fail to see
a road I'll always wander on until life changes me
I hope that soon I'll figure out what things I have done wrong
until that day, along this road, I guess I'll wander on......
