Not My Way Home Lyrics - Nanci Griffith

I know you believe in miracles 

And that this love will come back around 

And I know you believe the grass is growing 

Across this winter to the south of this town 

I know your kiss is sweeter 

Than the dust that this love has become 

Yet, I know your path is clearer 

Shed of me out there on your own 

I don't intend to sound ungrateful 

You've given love when I had none 

My feet have tread upon the road you're on 

And I know that it's not my way home 

I know that it's not my way home 

I know that it's not my way home 

You know this love has left us 

Don't count the years it took a long time to kill 

And I know you will find a place for memories 

You'll be out there runnin', I will be here to be still
