paroles de Girl On A Road

My momma was a waitress,
My daddy a truckdriver.
The thing that kept their power from them
Slowed me down awhile.
I remember the morning
That was the closing of my youth,
When I said goodbye to no one
And in that way faced my truth
And a walk along the river
And a rain a'coming down
And a girl on a road
 
There's a rhythm to a highway
To match the rhythm of your fears.
My shopping bag possessions scattered
With my splattered tears.
A string of nights in truck stops
And in darkness and in lies
And a man they all called Tigerboy
He just had to show me why.
He just had to give me something
I'd forever understand
As a girl on a road.
 
Rain upon the water
Makes footprints sunk in sand
Anger upon angry hurt
Take me by the hand
Take me by the heartstrings
And pull me deep inside
And say I'm one with your forgiveness
And separate from my pride
 
I don't know what it's like for you
But here's what it's like for me...
I wanted to turn beautiful
And serve eternity
And never follow money
Or love with greasy hands,
Or move the earth and waters
Just to make it fit my plans
My eyes would be the harbor,
My words the perfect place
For a girl on a road
 
I met you in the summer,
I left you in the fall.
In between we did some living
I like to think that's all
But now I see words can be like weapons
No matter that they're small,
I used three tiny words on you
And then beat it down the hall.
Does this road go on forever?
Does this terror know no end
For a girl on a road?
Would you like to sing it with me?
 
Rain upon the water
Makes footprints sunk in sand.
Anger upon angry hurt,
Take me by the hand.
Take me by the heartstrings
And pull me deep inside
And say I'm one with your forgiveness
And separate from my pride.
 
You cannot measure what it takes
To mend a withered heart.
They'll tell you at the onset
Everybody does their part.
I did my best to follow
The calling of my soul.
But, it's like that first guitar I played
At the center is a hole,
At the center is a longing
that I cannot understand
as a girl on a road.
 
But if music be a boulder,
Let me carry it a long while.
Let it turn into a feather,
Let it brush against my smile.
Let the life be somewhat settled
With the life that song has made.
Let there be nothing I am longing for
In some plan I may have made,
In some story quickly written
During a long forgotten time
As a girl on a road.
 
Sing it with me...
 
Rain upon the water
Makes footprints sunk in sand.
Anger upon angry hurt,
Take me by the hand.
Take me by the heartstrings
And pull me deep inside
And say I'm one with your forgiveness
And separate from my pride.
