lyrics

oh my goodness, hallelujah!
what in the world ever happened to ya?
glory bound! and glory be!
could you ever love someone like me?

because my mouth was the gun that shot the dove
which fell from the olive branch up above
when I turned around and told you that I was confused

so show me the hands with which you would’ve loved me
and I promise that I’ll hold them and I’ll tell you that I’m sorry

you make everything seem bright
but I can’t stay another night
your hair is shorn, my clothes are worn
the road it calls but my heart is torn

‘cause we danced together to your favorite songs
in the living room with the curtains drawn
and my head all uncertain in the early dawn

and every one of your arguments is water-tight
should’ve seen this coming from a mile away
you were absolutely right

well I know that all roads they lead to Rome
but I only want the one that takes me home
so you can laugh in my face or you can cry
you can follow me down or you can die
either way, one of us is gone and I keep movin’ on
