Broken Road Lyrics - Gwyneth Moreland

Snake of light above me keep my feet upon the path 

Keep my footsteps steady strong and hide my heart from wrath 

Save a sack of grain for the horse for when it snows 

And send word to my baby that I walk a broken road 

Snake of light above me guide me home to sleep 

Footsteps lost in darkness and promises to keep 

If my busking heart should play me like a fiddle poorly bowed 

Then send word to my baby that I walk a broken road 

If the sun and moon collide 

If the road should leave my feet 

Oh my thirst be satisfied 

Oh the reaper I will cheat 

Oh send word to my baby that I walk a broken road 

Keep the leering faces from the roadside as I pass 

Wash me with the sweetest dew that grows upon the grass 

Keep my spine straight as fire and fear within me stowed 

And send word to my baby that I walk a broken road
