Side Road Lyrics by Peter Yarrow

Peter

0

[Verse 1]
It was different knowing the roads that I was walking
'Cause I walked them when I was a boy
And it was different seeing the sun rise in the morning
Over the mountain where I was born

[Chorus]
I am lost on a side road
Will I ever get home?
I am turned to the dark side
I am all alone

[Verse 2]
I have seen the devil's eye as it was twinkling
And I watched him dancing on down that road
And I wanted so to let that gypsy lead me
So he could free me from my heavy load

[Chorus]
I am lost on a side road
Will I ever get home?
I am turned to the dark side
I am all alone

[Verse 3]
Now the oldest shoes I have will always fit me (Fit me)
And commit me (And commit me)
To the life I've known (Life I've known)
And I know that there is no one else besides me
That's going to guide me on my journey home

[Chorus]
I am lost on a side road
Will I ever get home?
I am turned to the dark side
I am all alone
