I've been down the river, and I've paid the cost
I've known the gains, and I've felt the loss
Of the things I hold, so dear to me.
I'm looking back through unfamiliar eyes
To understand the way a feeling dies
And it takes its toll, it takes its toll
Like a knife deep down in my soul
It's hard enough, it's hard enough
To walk this lonely road without you
It's hard enough, it's hard enough
To miss everything about you
It's hard enough to know I'm out here on my own/
So far away from the ones I love
When home's the only thing I'm dreaming of
When I close my eyes, you're the face I see
And it takes its toll on me.
Every moment reminds me of something
Something I've lost, somewhere I can't go back
But I just keep moving on, there's nothing else
I can do
But wait for tomorrow
The road is wide, and time is an ocean
And I'm afraid, but trouble will come and go
I know the stars are leading me back to you
