Bj Barham Road To Nowhere
[Verse 1]
Her mother came and packed her bags and drove her off to nowhere
In the shadows of her second father's shoulders she just stood there
Crying
She's crying
Then the wicked lies rolled off her tongue like war-bound soldiers marching
And she ran from the truth like wounded men run from the darkness
When they're dying
She's dying
[Chorus]
And I told her I loved her
And she told me she's leaving
Just like every other person in my life that I've believed in
And as she slammed the door and walked away I turned on my radio
Oh no
And I played her a dancing song
And got her home
[Verse 2]
And I had more faith in her than her mother had in Jesus
But like Judas she rebuked my name for jewels and silver pieces
A wedding ring
A wedding ring
And in my darkest hour her eyes filled with desperation
Her words were sharp and her sword was swift, Lord I have been forsaken
By my one true love
My one true love
[Chorus]
And I told her I loved her
And she told me she's leaving
Just like every other person in my life that I've believed in
And as she slammed the door and walked away I turned on my radio
Oh no
And I played her a dancing song
And got her home
[Verse 3]
As I lie alone tonight in the bed we built and once shared
I wonder where you are, who you're with, do you think that he cares
About you
About you
Now I am not a godly man, my road's twisted and sinful
But to have you back, I'd bow my head and sing a Southern Baptist hymnal
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
