[length: 08:15]
[00:01.13]The road is longer than it is hard
[00:06.64]With no one to guide you
[00:10.78]And no one to hold
[00:16.75]No best foot forward to sway the odds
[00:22.93]Just a voice inside you
[00:26.73]And a stone to throw
[00:32.39]Could you be someone else
[00:35.86]If someone else is what I need
[00:43.45]But I shouldn’t ask that of you
[00:48.27]When you are old you will understand
[00:51.72]But we are hurting now
[00:53.71]So what are we to do ’til then?
[00:58.51]Cradling pictures of you
[01:04.14]It was a highway to nowhere, and we rode it
[01:08.96]Cold car with no gas and we chose it
[01:12.72]Soft bodies playing in the street
[01:20.92]Our kids will grow up with half as much
[01:24.83]Trying to build something out of dust
[01:28.81]Finding out too late what they need
[01:36.67]You have tasted love and it tasted sweet
[01:40.92]You drank the blood and bit the meat
[01:44.63]You hold it, you hold it, you let it go
[01:52.93]You close your eyes and count to three
[01:57.18]You say the word and come to me
[02:02.25]And baby I know
[02:13.32]
[02:39.49]Drive the pathway through the pines
[02:43.64]And the moors of mystery
[02:47.69]Welcome conflict and let the crisis come
[02:51.88]And shake the ground beneath
[02:55.48]And the family secret hiding
[02:59.88]In the farmhouse down the street
[03:03.40]Rushes open door on your front porch and shadow me
[03:12.63]Taken and entirely, I embrace the bonny beast
[03:20.97]Over hills and highlands we rode hard, the passing peaks
[03:28.66]Danger liked the virgin wife, beside me she would sleep
[03:36.76]Cherry was her dad’s truck that she crashed at seventeen
[03:44.21]I kneel before what temper broke the branches on the beach
[03:52.04]And those thrilling highs and southern nights are always out of reach
[03:59.12]I learned a lesson
[04:05.57]I need to pray and hard
[04:07.32]Final hours take care of me, God (take care of me God)
[04:16.56]You have tasted love and it tasted sweet
[04:20.78]You drank the blood and bit the meat
[04:25.03]You hold it, you hold it, you let it go
[04:32.59]You close your eyes and count to three
[04:37.15]You say the word and come to me
[04:42.06]And baby I know
[04:51.42]
[05:21.21]The road is longer than it is hard (love overwhelms me)
[05:27.18]With no one to guide you (it’s all that I want, and it’s all that we have)
[05:37.37]No best foot forward to sway the odds (but is it enough)
[05:43.29]Just a voice inside you (to make it worth it in the end)
[05:53.11]Don’t sink in me with your dog teeth
[06:00.80]Don’t sink in me with your dog teeth
[06:08.92]Don’t sink in me with your dog teeth
[06:14.89]Don’t sink in me
[06:17.06]Don’t sink in me with your dog teeth
[06:25.02]You’ve tasted love and it tasted sweet
[06:29.03]You drank the blood and bit the meat
[06:32.75]You hold it, you hold it, but you’ll never know
[06:40.60]You close your eyes and cry to me
[06:44.61]Don’t sink in me with your dog teeth
[06:49.04]We’re better off if you let go
[06:58.19]
[07:28.90]If it was harder then
[07:32.64]It will be better now
[07:36.42]For I am here and changed
[07:40.57]I couldn’t tell you how
[07:44.31]There before the grace of God go I laughing to myself
[07:54.43]Forgetting what about
