Been Too Long On The Road

(앨범: On The Waters - 1970)

Always look so good on the outside
When you get to believing it's true, then you know
that you're on your way
People tug on your shirt, say you're lucky
You've got ev'rything you want, but you don't
Yet you dare not say

Go downtown people running around
They climb slowly dragging you downtown,
Horns make a dent in your mind
Plush rooms make a blinding your eye to see, blinding me.
Light, lovely light,
Won't ya' shine in my window
Love, precious love won't ya' fill ev'ry room,
Been too long on the road.

Maybe cynics veins are my life blood
Maybe biting the hand that I feed so I'll try
Try to understand what it is that devours your freedom,
Makes you drop what you used to hold in your head.
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, oldest gloom.

Warm, won't you be,
Please be there in my winter.
Love, precious love won't ya' come full 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
Whoa, 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.
