Lyrics
THE ROAD I walk along this dusty road It can't take me where I'm going Don't have a dime to bear the load Just time that ain't worth spendin' I look around at shattered pieces on the ground I see a hollow sound This ain't hallowed ground Ain't heard a song in Lord knows how long Just the beating of my heart while I'm waiting CHORUS: With these broken wings I'll fly From this place of dust and ash and sky I'll be there at the Edge of the Dawn But for now the Road goes on and on The Road goes on and on and on and on I feel tired and full of sleepless nights These cold stars keep on lookin' down I keep the faith as I watch this world go 'round For this the Ancients were commended But it's hard CHORUS CHORUS VARIATION: If I die before I wake I know the Lord my soul will take I'll go there on the wings of a song But for now the Road goes on and on The Road goes on and on and on and on Copyright 2010 Jenna Doll, Amanda Doll, Shelby Doll
