ROAD TO NOWHERE......Greg Harper live at The Woodies

Sometimes we would like to turn off the road...but something leads us on.....
A song about the inevitable consequences of our actions.
Lyrics....
ROAD TO NOWHERE
Your house was such a happy place to be
Two people in love made three
But when temptation came knocking at the door
Then three became two once more

[chorus]
So you take the road to nowhere
Let it lead you on and on
Just a drifting heart a drifting mind
You're a love without a home
So you take the road to nowhere
No matter where it leads
With just a broken heart
And a broken love for company

Duty was always honoured in his world
As strong as any vow to have and to hold
So when the calling came the calling he obeyed
Now his dearly beloved wife lays him in his grave

[chorus]

Another drink another night another fight
You're eight years old you listen eyes shut tight
A scream then silence the slam of a door
You ask if this is love then what's it for

[chorus]

So we stand at the crossroads life in hand
And we watch as it slips like grains of sand
The decisions that we make can cause such pain
But we make them again and again and again

So we take the road to nowhere
Let it lead us on and on
Just a drifting heart a drifting mind
We're a love without a home
So we take the road to nowhere
No matter where it leads
With just a broken heart
And a broken love for company
