No Way There From Here Lyrics - No Way There From Here - Laura Cantrell

I was sittin' in the dark 

As the band played on 

Listenin' to the words 

Of an old Southern song 

It was a January day 

But it felt just like June 

I could feel the heat of the house gettin' late in the day 

Your hand in mine as we made our way 

Cool green grass as we lay right down 

When I knew who I was 

And who I wanted to be 

But there's no way there from here 

No bridge across the ocean 

No path up through the mountain 

Or trip back through the years 

Or the tears 

There's no way there from here 

No turn I might have taken 

Each day when I awaken 

The dream that seemed so clear 

Disappears 

There's no way there from here 

The fights fluttered by like the pages of a book 

That fell from the shelf while the dishes shook 

Tattered bits of flattery 

Not just for my vanity 

I would take you out or tuck you in 

Be there when your day begin 

Hold you while you drift to sleep 

And be the one 

Your dreams to keep 

But there's no way there from here 

No bridge across the ocean 

No path up through the mountain 

Or trip back through the years 

Or the tears 

There's no way there from here 

No turn I might have taken 

Each day when I awaken 

The dream that seemed so clear 

Disappears 

There's no way there from here 

I was sittin' in the dark 

As the band played on 

Listenin' to the words 

of an old Southern song
