the road

I returned from a long road beaten
I returned from a place unknown
I'd taken a chance on something
And returned to this place alone
It came from a life of living
It came from a place of love
She said it with kindness holding
She said it with someone above

She said Boy I pray that your heart will remain
Your hope stays the same and you learn from the pain
The boy you were and the man you will be
Have a bargain to make a wager to see
What love will let go in order to take that road

I'm here with intentions uncovered
I've brought you my healing heart
And aside from your fluttery glances
You know you know
I've been marked by a life of mistrusting
I've been weakened by tested resolve
In a world that seeks only the truth
It shows does it show

She said Boy I pray that your heart will remain
Your hope stays the same and you learn from the pain
The boy you were and the man you will be
Have a bargain to make a wager to see
What love will let go in order to take that road

Don't let it hold you back
She said with smile
Don't think that it's wrong to voice your heart
Remember your soul is searching endlessly

You can run from the choices given
You can run from the paths they laid
You can run out of lust for what's taken
But you'll never outrun the love you made your own

Because life in fact is a riotous act
With no going back for the things you might lack
Because life you'll see is grasping at dreams
While you're loose at the seams and don't know where it leads
When love let's go are you ready to take that road
