Roads Lyrics - Assembly Of Dust

Theres a light in the kitchen, somebodys home 

A woman is sleeping, a man sits alone 

Alone, all alone. 

Then comes the dawning 

Then comes the morn 

The woman is yawning 

And daylight is born. 

The roar of an engine 

The coffee pot perks 

Then off to the office to a room full of jerks 

Again, once again 

(Chorus) 

I dont know where Im going but Ill get there. 

Sometimes Im wondering where will it be? 

On the Riviera 

A man was painting Greece 

The image that he captured- Hercules and the golden fleece 

Again, once again 

Evening came and found him 

His paintings looking fine 

He put away his brushes 

And went out for some wine 

Again, once again 

Having met a woman 

They went out for some air 

He loved her like his paintings 

And he wondered if she cared 

Did she care? 

(Chorus) 

Now there is a farmer 

With calloused hands and feet 

The wagon wheel is busted 

The kids have yet to eat, again 

Once again. 

They gathered at the table 

With loving in their eyes 

He looked at them contently 

He looked at them he looked at them he looked at them 

He looked at them with pride 

Once again 

And when the meal was over 

He kissed them all goodnight 

And sat down by the fire feeling everything was right 

All right, once again 

(Chorus) 

This is a song about lifestyles 

Decisions that we make 

Roads that we abandon 

And others that we take 

We take - roads we take.
