From the recording The Crooked Road
Lyrics
THE CROOKED ROAD
I have no home, just a memory
Of a place where the world was still
And the only thing that moved
Was the wind that blew the branches
At night against my window sill
That wind filled me up, like a sail I did blow
Far from my family and friends
Now I’ll never reach my destination
I’m chained to a road
That never ends
When they reach their journey’s end
Most folks seem to know
Me? It’s one more corner
Another light just ‘round the bend
I walk the crooked road
From time to time, I would return
To my old neighbourhood
But every face belonged to a stranger
And every place a place I have never stood
When they reach their journey’s end
Most folks seem to know
Me? It’s one more corner
Another light just ‘round the bend
I walk the crooked road
I have no home
Just a memory
Of a place
Where the world was still…
