The road, it never changes, but the people always do Tonight the time has come to tell you so The path along the river side is sparkled now again Stretching here to where God only knows I'll always love you, girl, on that you can rely There's nothing more or less you need to know So, lady, you better head back in the crook of my old arm And love me one more time before I go ♪ A lonesome, lonesome highway Out here thinking back on you I'll let your warm love shield me from the cold A melody and memory so shiny bright in these roads Breathing, where's the rhythm of the road? Early in the morning just before the sun comes up You miss me making, all these around the stove He'll touch you in the place where my own body used to be And curse the day I left you on the road
