Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love, purpose undefined
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
Can't help but wish that I was there
And where I'd love to be, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
Dear God, the only thing I ask of you is
To hold her when I'm not around
When I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
But I left her when I found her
And now I'd wished I'd stayed
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again, oh no
Once again
[Verse 3]
There's nothing here for me on this barren road
There's no one here while the city sleeps
And all the shops are closed
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah
[Verse 4]
Dear God, the only thing I ask of you is
To hold her when I'm not around
When I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
But I left her when I found her
And now I'd wished I'd stayed
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again, oh no
Once again
[Verse 5]
Well some search, never finding a way
Before long, they waste away
I found you, something told me to stay
I gave in, to selfish ways
And how I miss someone to hold
When hope begins to fade
[Verse 6]
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love, purpose undefined
[Verse 7]
Dear God, the only thing I ask of you is
To hold her when I'm not around
When I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
But I left her when I found her
And now I'd wished I'd stayed
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again, oh no
Once again
[Verse 8]
Yeah, yeah
