The Road to You
I'd resigned myself to a life of second places
Even with a lead, couldn't seem to win no races
So many chances had slipped past
Through fingers iron-cast
Til you came and turned my world around
Claimed my heart out of the lost and found
Then the troubles that I been through
Were only steps upon the road to you
Tossed and turned in bed haunted by misspoken old lines
Hard to get much rest when your fortune's a fool's goldmine
The hour that's darkest before dawn
Just went on and on
Til you came and brought my life your light
With one smile you broke that endless night
Then the times I knew not what to do
Were all just stops along the road to you
Some days I'd sit and wonder how much I could take
I'd wring my hands so hard that they couldn't catch a break
I'd even bow my head though I'm not a godly man
I prayed for a plan
Then you came and it was all so clear
I feel it each and every time you're near
Now I look back and marvel at the view
On the long and winding road to you
Now I look back and marvel at the view
On the long and winding road
The road to you
Even with a lead, couldn't seem to win no races
So many chances had slipped past
Through fingers iron-cast
Til you came and turned my world around
Claimed my heart out of the lost and found
Then the troubles that I been through
Were only steps upon the road to you
Tossed and turned in bed haunted by misspoken old lines
Hard to get much rest when your fortune's a fool's goldmine
The hour that's darkest before dawn
Just went on and on
Til you came and brought my life your light
With one smile you broke that endless night
Then the times I knew not what to do
Were all just stops along the road to you
Some days I'd sit and wonder how much I could take
I'd wring my hands so hard that they couldn't catch a break
I'd even bow my head though I'm not a godly man
I prayed for a plan
Then you came and it was all so clear
I feel it each and every time you're near
Now I look back and marvel at the view
On the long and winding road to you
Now I look back and marvel at the view
On the long and winding road
The road to you
