The Road Is A Lover Lyrics - Alison Krauss & Union Station

I met a man 

Traveling down the road 

He looked me in the eye 

And he gave me a ring 

And he gave me a rose 

And he told me some gypsy lies 

The road is a lover, you never recover 

Not now or any time soon 

My head starts to spin 

When I think where I've been 

Playin' twin to an old fiddle tune, oh 

As the wind chases after the moon 

Through the kindness 

Shown me that day 

I gave him this melody 

And we sang in duet 

'Neath the stars in the sky 

And the shadows of dancing trees 

The road is a lover, you never recover 

Not now or any time soon 

My head starts to spin 

When I think where I've been 

Playin' twin to an old fiddle tune, oh 

As the wind chases after the moon
