The Road Lyrics - Hard Bargain - Emmylou Harris

I can still remember 

Every song you played 

Long ago when we were younger 

And we rocked the night away 

How could I see a future then 

Or you would not grow old 

With such a fire in our belly 

Such a hunger in our souls 

I guess I probably loved you 

When those words rolled off your tongue 

Seemed that we were traveling 

Under some old lucky sun 

I know I couldn't save you 

And no one was to blame 

But the road we shared together once 

Will never be the same

Hey, gone a long way 

Won't be coming 'round again 

Hey, with a song I pray 

And on wings of a song I'll fly away 

I wandered in the wilderness 

For a while, I was so lost 

To everything there is a season 

And every blessing has its cost 

So I took what you left me 

Put it to some use 

When looking for an answer 

With those three chords and the truth 

I come down from the mountain 

I come walking in your shoes 

I was taken for a gambler 

When I had no more to lose 

Photos 

For you put me on that pathway 

How could I refuse 

And I've spend my whole life out here 

Working on the blues 

Hey, hey, hey 

Hey, hey, hey 

So I've carried on 

You can't be haunted by the past 

People come, people go 

And nothing ever lasts 

But I still think about you 

Wonder where you are 

Can you see me from some place 

Up there among the stars? 

But down here under heaven 

There never was a chart 

To guide our way across 

This crooked highway of the heart 

And if it's only all about 

The journey in the end 

On that road I'm glad 

I came to know you, my old friend 

Hey, gone a long way 

Won't be coming 'round again 

Hey, with a song I pray 

And on wings of a song I'll fly away 

I'll fly away 

I'll fly away 

I'll fly away 

Oh, oh
