Intro

------ x2

 A lonely road, crossed another cold state line

Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find

While I recall all the words you spoke to me

 Can't help but wish that I was there

 Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is

 to hold her when I'm not around,

 when I'm much too far away

We all need that person who can be true to you

 But I left her when I found her

 And now I wish I'd stayed

 ’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired

 I'm missing you again oh no

 Once again

There's nothing here for me on this barren road

 There's no one here while the city sleeps

 and all the shops are closed

Can't help but think of the times I've had with you

Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is

 to hold her when I'm not around,

 when I'm much too far away

We all need that person who can be true to you

 I left her when I found her

 And now I wish I'd stayed

 ’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired

 I'm missing you again oh no

 Once again

Some search, never finding a way

Before long, they waste away

I found you, something told me to stay

I gave in, to selfish ways

And how I miss someone to hold

when hope begins to fade...

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line

Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is

 to hold her when I'm not around,

 when I'm much too far away

We all need the person who can be true to you

 I left her when I found her

 And now I wish I'd stayed

 ’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired

 I'm missing you again oh no

 Once again
