Farther to Go
Journey Through Heartbreak: Loretta Lynn's Farther to Go
Lyrics
I've been up to the top of a heartbreak mountain
I have experienced the intense pain of heartbreak.
I've been down in the valley of the blues
I have faced the depths of sadness and despair.
I've been down the road of loneliness and back again
I have traveled the lonely path and returned.
And I've got farther to go than I've been
Despite my past experiences, there is still a long journey ahead.
I've been down in the dust of broken mem'ries
I have dealt with shattered memories and emotional pain.
I've been up on the clouds of happiness
I have also experienced moments of great joy and elation.
I've seen many a glass held high in the house of sin
I've witnessed celebrations marked by raising glasses in sinful places.
And I've got farther to go than I've been
Despite these varied experiences, there is more to endure in the future.
I've got farther to go I've got things to forget
I acknowledge that I have a long way to go, with memories to let go.
I've got things I remember about you
I carry both positive and painful memories of our past.
I've been up when you told me that you love me
I felt elation when you professed love for me.
I went down when you told me we were through
I experienced deep sorrow when you declared our relationship over.
Cried until my eyes would dry then I cried again
I cried extensively, and even after drying my eyes, the pain persists.
And I've got farther to go than I've been
Despite my emotional trials, there is still a challenging journey ahead.
Yes I've got farther to go than I've been
Emphasizing that the road ahead is longer than the path already traveled.
