LONELY ROAD

Words & Music by Tera Johnson

VERSE 1:

Sometimes it’s easier to follow

But life sometimes lives not with ease

Really who’s to blame when you wallow

In all the failings, costs and fees

Sometimes you have to learn to lead

In a way that sometimes seems in vain

You know that you can only count on

Yourself when it’s you that feels the pain

CHORUS:

So you sure as hell can know

When there’s no where else to go

VERSE 2:

Sometimes it’s hard to love yourself

In a world that’s less than fair

Deprecation soon takes over

When you follow if you dare

Sometimes you have to walk alone now

Cause it’s the only way to be

Really who can you depend on

Only you if you believe

CHORUS:

That you sure as hell will know

There is no where else to go

With a heavy load

On the lonely road

BRIDGE:

I want to tell you life is easy

I want the world to be kind

I wish that everyone around you

Never would hurt you but you’ll find

CHORUS:

Cause you sure as hell must know

That by now you’ll only go

 With your own load

On a less traveled road

It's a lonely road
