lyrics

Song: "Back on the Road"


I was down in the valley, couldn't see the sun,
Chasing shadows, but I couldn't outrun.
Whiskey in my veins, heart full of stone,
Lost in the dark, far from my home.

Chorus:
But I'm back on the road, found my way to the light,
Leaving all the hurt and the demons behind.
Gonna drive on this highway, just me and my soul,
Heading for tomorrow, on a journey to be whole.

Tangled in my troubles, couldn't break free,
Fighting through the pain, just trying to breathe.
Every drink I took, every line I chased,
Was a road to nowhere, lost in a daze.

Chorus:
But I'm back on the road, found my way to the light,
Leaving all the hurt and the demons behind.
Gonna drive on this highway, just me and my soul,
Heading for tomorrow, on a journey to be whole.

Now I'm seeing clear skies, no more fear in my mind,
Found a new direction, leaving all the past behind.
With the open road ahead, and the sun on my face,
I'm racing towards the future, in a brand new space.

Chorus:
But I'm back on the road, found my way to the light,
Leaving all the hurt and the demons behind.
Gonna drive on this highway, just me and my soul,
Heading for tomorrow, on a journey to be whole.

On this winding road, I found my way back home,
No more chasing shadows, I'm finally free to roam.
Back on the road, where I'm meant to be,
Stronger and wiser, I'm finally me.

Chorus:
But I'm back on the road, found my way to the light,
Leaving all the hurt and the demons behind.
Gonna drive on this highway, just me and my soul,
Heading for tomorrow, on a journey to be whole.
