for Ann
The road always leads back to you
=====
When I'm alone, when I'm with friends,
When luck is here, or when good times end.
The road ahead, it always leads me back leads me back to you
from the first drive-in thru, when we knew
that we'd be lovers, except for you
The road ahead, it always leads me back leads me back to you
From where I stand I still see, the big river in front of me.
and behind an open and closed door.
If I had stayed, not forced you out,
not cut you off, if I had thought.
It's on that river that we'd be ever more.
But looking back never gives you a choice.
And above it all, the thing that I love most.
Is when I turn and I see you're still right next to me
That the road ahead, leads back to you.
It's when I turn and I find, you're still clear here in my mind
the road ahead, leads back to you.
And when you turn and see, I'll be right there, when you need.
Cause the road, always leads back, to you.
