K. Messal G. Cormier

I've been traveling a long, long road, under a heavy load

and I can't see my way home

rain is fallin' heavily down, can't see my feet for the ground

I'm walking through a river of pain

Up around the very next bend, crossroads in my life again

must be time for introspection

lord I am a weary child, can you take the load for a while

and point me a direction

(Chorus)

'Cause the cold dark night wind's blowing

don't know if I'm coming or going

seems I've been down this road before

but I don't know when

I think I hear someone calling me

is it real or a memory

I don't think that I wanna see

around the next bend

People stop their lives to stare, will they ridicule or care

there's times it's hard to tell

will they laugh to keep from crying

am I the ghost of their dreams dying

or somehow their salvation

And the love ones I have known, distance between us grows

and I can't think what to say

Lord, I've fallen to my knees, Through the pain I beg you please

point me a direction.

(Chorus)
