Song Lyrics

Looking out at the road before me
I can feel it heavy in my eyes
Further down there's a woman waiting
But this leaving don't come as no surprise

Looking out over Colorado
I can see ten different kinds of gold
Faded now like the river wondering
Just how long it'll be till I've grown old

You'd think by now
I'd have learned
Well there ain't much more to say

This road can give and take away
And I know that i'll see harder days
I guess I've learned the harder way to go

On my own in a crowd of people
Im reminded of the seeds that I have sown
Left alone there's a young boy waiting
For the leader of the band to come back home

You'd think by now
I'd have learned
Well there ain't much more to say

This road can give and take away
And I know that i'll see harder days
I guess I've learned the harder way to go
