(Mark Erelli)      How many miles   Did we travel down that road   Searching all the while   For a place to call our own   So young and hypnotized   By the stars in our eyes   How could we have ever known   Almost home   We were almost home      How many times   Can you go on tempting fate   'Til it sends you a sign   You can't anticipate   Now the lesson is learned   Our love has turned   >From a jewel into a stone   Almost home   We were almost home      Love never lasts   Like an old photograph   Where the colors slowly fade to shades of grey      Love is the place   Where you go when day is done   Love is in the face   Of the old and young   Love knows nothing of the wheel   Of aluminum and steel   Traveling down that gravel road   Almost home
