Been Too Long On The Road

Always look so good on the outside When you get to believin' it's true Then you know that you're on your way People tug on your shirt, say you're lucky You got everything you want But you don't, yet you dare not say Go downtown, people runnin' around they climb slowly draggin' you Downtown horns make a dent in your mind Plush rooms make a blind in your eyes to see, blindin' me Light, lovely light, won't you shine in my window Love, precious love, won't you fill every room Been too long on the road Maybe cynics veins are my lifeblood May be bitin' the hand that I feed So I'll try, try to understand What it is that devours your freedom Makes you drop that you used to hold in your hand All the things you planned Go upstairs with a someone who says she cares Like the devil she does what comes ever into your mind Then gone, leaving you with the coldest room, the oldest gloom Warm, won't you be, please be there in the winter Love, precious love, won't you come full of circle Been too long on the road How can I do this to myself? Have I taken leave of my senses? What kind of changes make a man Want to tear down all his fences? Ohh, I'd like to know Home, ever home, how could I ever doubt you Love, precious love, how could I live without you Been too long on the road
