Natural Bridge |
|
by Adrienne Young (Autumn 2006) |
|
Feel like I been riding for a thousand years |
|
Down this lonesome road and bitter trail of tears |
|
But I gotta keep on |
|
Gotta be strong |
|
Emptied out this vessel in the desert sand |
|
It was filled up so many things I couldn't understand |
|
Yeah I did a lot wrong trying to belong |
|
What makes you do wrong when you want to belong |
|
Damn this dead end road |
|
Down again I go |
|
There's a different path that I can see |
|
And it's waiting for me |
|
It's a natural bridge that I'll be crossing over |
|
A simple high green ridge to bonny fields of clover |
|
And there my soul will dance again with my true love and all my kin |
|
The greatest privilege to cross a natural bridge |
|
Underneath the trees I breathe the breezes in |
|
I know it's time to start and I know where to begin |
|
I got to move on kick back and roll on |
|
Damn this dead end road |
|
Down again I go |
|
There's a new path that I can see |
|
And it's waiting for me |
|
It's a natural bridge that I'll be crossing over |
|
A simple high green ridge to bonny fields of clover |
|
And there my soul will dance again with my true love and all my friends |
|
The greatest privilege to cross a natural bridge |
|
Feel like I been ridin for a thousand years |
|
Down this lonesome road and bitter trail of tears |
|
But I gotta keep on |
|
I am strong |
