I sit and stare, an empty chair   Another day without you   Each one for me can only be   Another day without you      The tick and tock of every clock   Seems too long   No good and bad   When all you have is gone      I put the street beneath my feet   So not to think about you   But every sound and every sight   Unlocks a picture of you      Each memory a rush   Of joy and pain   If only I could   Hold you once again      But this is the lonely road   This is the lonely road   No signs to lead you home   There ain't no lights to tell you not go      And nowhere is the only place that it goes   The only place that everybody knows   The lonely road      And if we laughed and if we cried   We did it all together   It never once crossed my mind   We wouldn't last forever      One mistake   That's all it takes and then   You turn around   You're on your own again      But this is the lonely road   This is the lonely road   No signs to lead you home   Ain't no lights to tell you not go      And nowhere is the only place that it goes   The only place that everybody knows   The lonely road      One mistake   That's all it takes and then   You turn around   You're on your own again      This is the lonely road   This is the lonely road   No signs to lead you home   Ain't no lights to tell you not go      And nowhere is the only place that it goes   The only place that everybody knows   The lonely road      That's lonely road   It's a long winding road   Don't make me walk it all alone   That's long, long road
