Let go off my hand, I can"t stay anymore
I"ve got to run, girl, I"ve got to run
I will leave this very morning, I will sail from these shores
With the first light that sets from the sun
And when I"ll be back I don"t know
They call for the road, my heart and my soul
It"s in the blood that boils in my veins
It"s my trusted companion it will always be the same
Life is holy
And every minute you are living
Is as sumptuous as silver and gold
Falling slowly
Into the arms of my guitar
That keeps me safe in every city
On the long and winding trip
On the road
I"ll turn at dozen paces, smell like cigarettes and whiskey
Look at me like it"s the last time.
Love is a duel and music my salvation
I"m reborn much more frequent than I die
Oh you wise and level minds
With your heads in the clouds and your feet far behind
It"s from the mad ones you can learn
Mad to live, mad to talk, mad to burn, burn, burn, burn
And every minute you are living
Is as sumptuous as silver and gold
Falling slowly
Into the arms of my guitar
That keeps me safe in every city
On the long and winding trip
On the road
I am on the road again
I find love in singing songs for all my friends
I can"t wait to get on the road again.
Life is holy
And every second you are wasting
Is gone and suddenly you"re grey and old
Falling slowly
I leave my shadows all be hind me
As I ride from town to town
On the long and winding trip
On the road
I"ve got to run, girl, I"ve got to run
I will leave this very morning, I will sail from these shores
With the first light that sets from the sun
And when I"ll be back I don"t know
They call for the road, my heart and my soul
It"s in the blood that boils in my veins
It"s my trusted companion it will always be the same
Life is holy
And every minute you are living
Is as sumptuous as silver and gold
Falling slowly
Into the arms of my guitar
That keeps me safe in every city
On the long and winding trip
On the road
I"ll turn at dozen paces, smell like cigarettes and whiskey
Look at me like it"s the last time.
Love is a duel and music my salvation
I"m reborn much more frequent than I die
Oh you wise and level minds
With your heads in the clouds and your feet far behind
It"s from the mad ones you can learn

And every minute you are living
