A Crooked Road
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I walk a crooked road to get where i am going
To get where i am going i must walk a crooked road
And only when i'm looking back i see the straight and narrow
I see the straight and narrow when i walk a crooked road
I sing a lonesome song to anyone who'll listen,
To anyone who'll listen i 'll sing my lonesome song.
And when i hear you singing too, the sorrow sounds so hopeful
The sorrow sounds so hopeful, when i sing my lonesome song.
And a lonesome song will be my true companion
When all else has abandoned for singing of their own
And a lonesome song will fill my days with gladness
Make joy out of sadness when i sing this lonesome song, to you
I love with all my heart, there is no way of stopping,
I have no way of stopping i just love with all my heart.
Through the broken and the beautiful, the bad news and the good news,
The bad new and the good news is i love with all my heart.
And a loving heart will be my true companion,
When all else has abandoned for loving of their own.
And a loving heart will fill my days with gladness,
Make joy out of sadness when i bring this loving heart, to you…
I long to be a happy man, in this life that i've been given
In this life that i've been given i long to be a happy man.
When the noise turns to stillness, i see i have the makings.
I see i have the makings to be one happy man.
And a happy man will be my true companion,
When all else has abandoned for happy of their own.
And a happy man will fill my days with gladness,
Make joy out of sadness when i show this happy man…
And a happy man will be my true companion,
When all else has abandoned for happy of their own.
And a happy man will fill my days with gladness,
Make joy out of sadness when i bring this happy man, to you…
I walk a crooked road to get where i am going,
To get where i am going i must walk a crooked road
And only when i'm looking back i see the straight and narrow,
I see the straight and narrow when i walk a crooked road…
