I've been on the road and here I go again
Just like I promised I would not
And you say you know me well
But I've tried to tell you
I've tried to say
That I will wipe my brow in the auburn malted glow
But I'm always gonna go
They carry me away
I've tried to prove I could be good in my heart
But I'm always gonna go
Where they carry me away, they did
I hear you cry just like you believed in me
Just like you promised that you would
But I've been howlin' at the moon
I've been breakin' myself in two
It's all I've ever known and if I, if I
I'm always gonna go
Where the Westlin' winds do go, and I, I
I'm always gonna go where they carry me away
Cruel heart, I, all she wanted was to love me, to love me
Cruel heart, I, ooh
And I will wipe my brow in the auburn malted glow
I'm always gonna go
Where the Westlin' winds do blow
I've tried to prove I could be good in my heart
I'm always gonna go
Where they carry me away, they did
Cruel heart, I, all she wanted was to love me, to love me
My cruel heart, I, you leave me fumblin' with disaster
And I build it up to break it down
Cruel heart, I, you leave me broken lost and lonely, I'm lonely
Cruel heart, I, ooh-ooh
