by Townes Van Zandt
I'm standin' with my bowed head down now
that ain't right that ain't wrong
It's just a feelin' but I can't shake it
I keep on tryin but it's been so long
If I hurt you I did not mean to
I beg you pardon I did not want to
When I leave you don't you think about me
I won't be back babe I'll be long gone
When the time comes and I'm not ready
seems it's over before I'm started
The time comes and I don't feel it
I don't know nothin' but my own
Kingdoms into the sky go
and the highway like a river does flow
and my way sometimes it hurts so
and your way just don't go home
I'm standin' with my bowed head down now
that ain't right that ain't wrong
It's just a feelin' but I can't shake it
I keep on tryin but it's been so long
If I hurt you I did not mean to
I beg you pardon I did not want to
When I leave you don't you think about me
I won't be back babe I'll be long gone
When the time comes and I'm not ready
seems it's over before I'm started
The time comes and I don't feel it
I don't know nothin' but my own
Kingdoms into the sky go
and the highway like a river does flow
and my way sometimes it hurts so
and your way just don't go home
