Shadow On The Road Ahead

10 after 3 on a lonely night

moon´s coming out, something don´t feel right

and I´m running down a long lonely road

lord, I´m carrying a heavy load

and there´s a shadow on the road ahead

up ahead I can´t get by

scare to move, but i´ve got to try

´cause I´m a wanted man where I´ve been

I ain´t never goin´back again

but there´s a shadow on the road ahead

charged out burning in a reckless flight

now I´m alone in the middle of the night

but I couldn´t stay there and see it through

I won´t pay for things that I didn´t do

night fell down as I got in my car

drove all night just to get this far

It´s almost dawn, it´s just not fair

one more turn, I would have made it there

oh no, it just can´t be

I see the trees reaching out for me

God, I´m sorry for what I´ve done

they´re coming now, and I´ve got to run

there´s a shadow on the road ahead
