Roads Lyrics by Jess Williamson

Time Ain’t Accidental

2023

[Verse 1]
Find what's freely given, real love will come to you
As good a town as any to be terribly confused
City of dreamers, it's a city of flame
But I don't miss the seasons and I don't need the rain

[Verse 2]
'Cause you've given me something I can't explain
You got a face like the moon controlling the waves
When I'm swimming in cold water, you watch me from the shore
You're a zephyr in the desert, shakes me to the core

[Chorus]
Got a hurricane in my heart for you, hailstorm in my head
Tornado blowing through my bones and thеre's flooding up ahead
It's a long ways to paddle, a deep wеll to tread
All the roads we didn't travel, everything we left unsaid

[Verse 3]
We all have a darkness, me and my closest friends
Tell me all your stories, tell me who you've been
Give me every detail of the thirsty women
Who craved you in their wild days and now they're home with kids

[Verse 4]
I have a love of freedom, I guess I always did
Was a runner as a child and now I'm doing this
If any man could hold me, be like you, real strong and big
He'd let me get so lonely that I'm begging for a kiss

[Chorus]
Got a hurricane in my heart for you, hailstorm in my head
Tornado blowing through my bones and there's flooding up ahead
It's a long ways to paddle, a deep well to tread
All the roads we didn't travel, everything we left unsaid

[Chorus]
Got a hurricane in my heart for you, hailstorm in my head
Tornado blowing through my bones and there's flooding up ahead
It's a long ways to paddle, a deep well to tread
All the roads we didn't travel, everything we left unsaid
