I've Been Down Some Roads

(album: No One Will Ever Know - 1980)

The cracks that run across the wall and fall down to the floor
Are something in this hotel room they aren't charging for
But I've paid the price for what they meant to me I've been down some roads

For the wall looks like a roadmap and a picture of my life
I never stopped to settle down and take myself a wife
I spit the seeds and threw away the rind I've been down some roads

And late at night it comes to mind forgotten times and places
Names no longer cross my mind I still recall their faces
And I bow my head and see the feet that somehow never slowed
I've been down some roads I've been down some roads

And I've been up some highways and I've been down some lows
Right now I'm feeling just as down as any man could go
At first the miles were kind but new they show I've been down some roads

And late at night it comes to mind
I've been down some roads I've been down some roads
