Sweet Road

I am from a small city My name's like my old dad I own just my illusions And they always drag me down I've been heartbroken, in denial I've had a few good laughs But when it comes to living I've always had a hard time I've grabbed my clothes and books I put them in a bag Said goodbye to my auntie "I don't know when I'll come back" She said "be careful with the road Strangers might get close Your journey will end once You finally find your way back home" Road, sweet road Take me back home Oh-oh-oh Road, sweet road Take me back home And old man let me travel Behind his beat up truck There I met a few people They seemed as lost as I I fell in love one, two, three times But never got it right A poet taught me living is like Sunflowers blooming in sawdust Buried my pain behind the whisky My friends kept getting high Broke, without a penny Someone ditch me in the ally And I've learnt about disaster And loneliness and sadness But on the road, my friend, I saw The beauty within the madness Road, sweet road Take me back home Oh-oh-oh Road, sweet road Take me back home Road, sweet road Take me back home Oh-oh-oh Road, sweet road Take me back home
