Alison Krauss

Album:

Lonely Runs Both Ways

I left home when I was seventeen


I just grew tired of falling down


And I'm sure I was told


The allure of the road


Would be all I found






And all the answers that I started with


Turned out questions in the end


So years roll on by


And just like the sky


The road never ends






(Chorus:)


And the people who love me still ask me


When are you coming back to town


And I answer quite frankly


When they stop building roads


And all God needs is gravity to hold me down






(Chorus:)


And the people who love me still ask me


When are you coming back to town


And I answer quite frankly


When they stop building roads


And there ain't no more highways to be found


And I answer quite frankly


When they stop building roads


And all God needs is gravity to hold me down
