I'm heading down a lonely highway I'm running down a one-way street I wanna know, are you going my way? Is there some place quiet where we can meet? And friends they come and friends they go, But you were always by my side. And where it all ends I don't know. Don't cry no more, just hold on tight. There was a time when I was desperate, Living in a town without a name, And when things got so dark and desolate You taught me how to hide my shame. And kings and queens and millionaires May never know what I have known And thank the stars I'm the lucky one, Thanks for the lessons that I have been shown I feel rich, I feel power and security, And when I'm weak, you are strong. Once in a lifetime, twice in eternity, And guess what? Nothing else matters anyway.
