Lost Highway
Journey Through the Lost Highway: A Tale of Redemption and Regret
Lyrics
I'm a rollin' stone all alone and lost
I am a wanderer, disconnected and confused
For a life of sin I've paid the cost
I've faced the consequences of a life filled with wrongdoing
When I pass by all the people say
As I pass by, people perceive me as just another lost soul
Just another guy on the lost highway
I'm identified as an ordinary person on the path of confusion and despair
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine
My possessions are simple - a deck of cards, a jug of wine
And a woman's lies makes a life like mine
The deceitful words of a woman shape a life similar to mine
On the day we met, I went astray
On the day we met, I deviated from the right path
I started rolling down that lost highway
I started descending into the chaos of the lost highway
I was just a lad, nearly twenty-two
In my youth, at almost twenty-two, I was neither virtuous nor wicked
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you
Just an ordinary kid like you
And now I'm lost, too late to pray
Now I find myself lost, too late to seek redemption through prayer
Lord, I paid the cost, on the lost highway
Oh Lord, I've paid the price for my mistakes on this lost highway
Now boy's don't start to ramblin' round
Young men, don't wander into the realms of sin
On the road of sin, are you sorrow bound?
Are you destined for sorrow on this path of wrongdoing?
Take my advice or you'll curse the day
Heed my counsel, or you'll regret the day
You started rollin' down that lost highway
You embarked on the troublesome journey of the lost highway
Take my advice or you'll curse the day
Take my advice seriously, or you'll regret
You started rollin' down that lost highway
You initiated the descent into the chaos of the lost highway
