There's some things that just happen
They throw a wrench in your plans
And you come out dirty on the other side
And you call yourself a man
I held your heart like a wounded dove
And I tried to fix your wing
But all that time I spent alone I tried
To teach you how to fly right back to me
I never wanted my condition
To find it's way to you
And I guess I'll never know how much you knew until we're through
And I think about that love we shared like a
Panhandle Road
And every curve we took lead to the unknown
And every curve we took lead to the unknown
Some people come for comfort
Some people come for sand
And they walk along the beach and pick up shells upon the land
I never did quite understand why you long for the coast
You said it reminds you of those long walks
On the levee
On those Mississippi mornings
I never wanted my condition
To find it's way to you
And I guess I'll never know how much you knew until we're through
And I think about that love we shared like a
Panhandle Road
And Every curve we took lead to the unknown
And Every curve we took lead to the unknown
Some people live to gamble
They lay it all on the line
And they pray that those three sevens
Fall in place here side-by-side
One armed bandits
Waiting on bullets
And that classic dead man's hand
Well I'd rather make my own luck
Being right here playing these songs where I stand
I never wanted my condition
To find it's way to you
And I guess I'll never know how much you knew until we're through
And I think about that love we shared like a Panhandle Road
And Every curve we took lead to the unknown
And Every curve we took lead to the unknown
There's some things that just happen
They throw a wrench in your plans
And you come out dirty on the other side
And you call yourself a man
I held your heart like a wounded dove
And I tried to fix your wing
But all that time I spent alone I tried
To teach you how to fly right back to me
