Lyrics:
on
Travelling on
Now he's a long way from home
Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
Oh heavy load
Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
movin' slow
I'll give it a go
Hey, what's there to lose?
Could be more than just a fling
So baby, I'll swing all night long with you
Let's let those
simulations got it's feels
But you wouldn't have it any other way, hey
Got a long, long way to go
Got a long, long way to go
Divine intervention she's a human
Can't go no further down this long road
It's a heavy load
By a bright stream
Came an old dream
Things are never what they always seem
And so he
Just drop by my place on your way home
Let's go get stoned
It ain't no harm
You're takin just a taste
But don't blow your cool
And start messing
Mark these words (mark these words)
On his grave (on his grave)
You should have seen
The curse that flew right by you
Page of concrete
Stain walks
sit sipping their tea, watch the sea
Move the sand through their heads (sit in their chairs by the bay)
Did I show you the marks on the wall
Left by
Woman of a thousand years
How are your sons of a time ago?
Do they still admire your silvered ways?
As you go down
To the sea and the gold sand
Mark these words (mark these words)
On his grave (on his grave)
You should have seen
The curse that flew right by you
Page of concrete
Stain walks
long live now
Rise up to the shining
Don't be blind by fools again
Fools again
Bells will take their toll
On your way
There's no way we're born
It's by far the hardest thing I've ever done
To be so in love with you and so alone
Follow me where I go what I do and who I know
Make it part
Missouri too.
So natcherly I got my doubts, you got `em dropping by the wayside,
A feeling I ain't gonna know.
You came a long way from St. Louis, but
Not a day goes by I don't think about you
You left your mark on me it's permanent a tattoo
Pierce the skin and the blood runs through
Oh my baby
I remember, wasn't so long ago
We had a one room shack and the livin' was low
And my Mama by herself raised me and my bro
Wasn't easy, but we did it
Missouri too
So, naturally, I got my doubts
You got 'em droppin' by the wayside
A feelin' I ain't gonna know
You came a long way from St. Louis
But,
So long now, forever I'll be
So unsure, forever searching
For the right way
Hallucinating sun marks
In the visions of my eye
Holding on, getting by
still ticking
But the chime never rings
And how long must I stay?
Will I lay by your side
Just to say that I'm yours
And you'll never be mine
With
hours on end
And, God, won't you send me away
To the hills of Alabam'
I've been a long way
And I've longer yet to go
And if you can't take me home
Hear
a blind man could see what you've let go by
You wouldn't know love if it looked you in the eye
For much too long, I've tried so hard to hide
The way
perfect
The delivery flawless
And it always feels like I'm hittin' the mark
'Til I go sit in the car
Listen and pick it apart
Like, "This shit is garbage!"
against the wall
Teacher marks our height against the wall
We don't notice any time pass
We don't notice anything
We sit side by side in every class
Missouri too.
So natcherly I got my doubts, you got `em dropping by the wayside,
A feeling I ain't gonna know.
You came a long way from St. Louis, but
will you go
When your race is run
And you already know
Yesterday's men hang to today,
To sing in any old way,
It must get better in the long run
So this is permanent, love's shattered pride
What once was innocence, turned on its side
A cloud hangs over me, marks every move
Deep in
