Been Too Long On The Road Lyrics - Retrospective - Bread

Always look so good on the outside 

When you get to believin' it's true, then you know 

that you're on your way 

People tug on your shirt, say you're lucky 

You've got ev'rything you want, but you don't 

Yet you dare not say 

Go downtown people runnin' around 

They climb slowly draggin' you downtown, 

Horns make a dent in your mind 

Plush rooms make a blindin' your eye to see, blindin' me. 

Light, lovely light, 

Won't ya' shine in my window 

Love, precious love won't ya' fill ev'ry room, 

Been too long on the road.

Maybe cynics veins are my life blood 

Maybe bitin' the hand that I feed so I'll try 

Try to understand what it is that devours your freedom, 

Makes you drop what you used to hold in your head. 

All the things you planned 

Go upstairs with a someone who says she cares, 

Like the devil she does, 

what comes ever into your mind 

Then gone, leavin' you with the coldest room, oldest gloom. 

Warm, won't you be, 

Please be there in my winter. 

Love, precious love won't ya' come full circle, 

Been too long on the road 

How can I do this to myself? 

Have I taken leave of my senses? 

What kind of changes make a man 

want to tear down all his fences 

Whoa, I'd like to know

Home, ever home, 

How could I ever doubt you 

Love, precious love, how could I live without you? 

Been too long on the road.
