It's a lonely road
for the tired man
and you can see it in your face
And you'll be home in spring
I can wait 'til then
I heard you're on the big train
And oh, this too shall pass
This loneliness won't last for long
I wasn't there to take his place
I was ten thousand miles away
So when you hear my voice
when you say my name
may it never give you pain
But I don't wanna go
but it's time to leave
You'll be on my mind, my destiny
And I won't fight in vain
I'll love you just the same, oh
I couldn't know what's in your mind
but I saw the pictures, you're looking fine
And there was a time when I stood in line
for love, for love, for love
But I let you go, oh
I let you go
And he fell apart
with his broken heart
and this blood, this blood, this blood
Oh, it drains from my skin, it does
