Lonesome Highway
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.
As I wondered down the long lonesome highway
I meet other people on the way
The broken hearted lovers who've been left along the by-way
Living by night and hiding from the day
The people I meet as I go on my way
They all have a story to tell
How they once had a lover who left them on the by-way
To wonder this lonely hell
And if you know, don't let me go
And if you know, don't let me go
And if you know, don't let me go
I love you so
I love you so
So as I carry on down the long lonesome highway
I meet other people on the way
More broken hearted lovers who've been left along the by-way
Living by night and hiding from the day
And if you know, don't let me go
And if you know, don't let me go
And if you know, don't let me go
Cause I love you so
I love you so
I love you so....
