It's a lonely road
For the tired man
And they can see it in your face
And you'll be home in spring
I can wait till then
I heard you're on the big train

And all 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
Will you say my name?
And never forget the pain

I don't want to go
But it's time to leave
And be on my mind and my destiny

And I won't fight it in vain
I love you just the same
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 you cut apart
This broken heart
This blood this blood this blood
Oh it drains from my skin and dust
