This Lonely Road
Journey Through the Heart: Decoding Gordon Rocker's This Lonely Road
Lyrics
Want to avoid this disaster
Expressing a desire to avoid a disastrous situation.
Walk away while the coast is still clear
Suggesting the intention to leave before any problems arise.
Turn the wheel before I start to feel
Considering a change in direction before emotions set in.
And see where the road leads from here
Exploring the uncertainty of the future and the path ahead.
Looking for love everlasting
Seeking a lasting and enduring love.
Hope to strike gold in a smile
Hoping to find happiness or success in a genuine smile.
Push back the tears and wind back the years
Resisting sorrow and reminiscing about the past.
Forget all the heartache I've known
Trying to forget past heartaches and pain.
Cause something inside me feels so low
Feeling a deep internal emotional low.
Sometimes I don't know where to go
Expressing confusion about the direction in life.
I am walking out of some stranger's room
Leaving an unfamiliar place, indicating a sense of detachment.
And looking for what I don't know
Searching for something undefined.
This lonely road makes my heart grow fonder
Highlighting the emotional impact of the solitary journey.
Somebody must really lovin me
Suggesting that someone loves the singer.
Far from the fire some place down the wire
Describing a distant and safe place away from troubles.
A home in a heart that I've known
Referring to finding a home in a familiar heart.
If this don't make me even stronger
Reflecting on the potential strengthening effect of challenges.
It's sure gonna be the end of me
Expressing concern about challenges leading to personal downfall.
Spin the wheel then I start to feel
Describing the emotional experience of taking a chance.
And see where the road leads from here
Exploring the unknown consequences of the chosen path.
Cause something inside me feels so low
Reiterating the internal emotional struggle.
Sometimes I don't know where to go
Expressing uncertainty about the right direction to take.
I am walking out of some stranger's room
Leaving an unfamiliar place, indicating a sense of detachment (repeated).
And looking for what I don't know
Searching for something undefined (repeated).
And something inside me feels so cold
Describing a profound internal coldness.
When I don't have none to hold
Expressing a longing for someone to hold.
I am walking into my baby's arms
Returning to a familiar and comforting place.
And looking for what I don't know
Continuing the search for an undefined something in the familiar.
