I know it won't be easy to say goodbye
just the thought of leaving
brings a tear to my eye
lately I've been spending too much time alone
I'm tired of being lonely
so it's time to go
in the morning I'll be on the road
Somewhere in the city
somewhere in a dream
my woman sings a sad song
as she waits for me
lately she's been spending to much time alone
she's tired of being lonely
and she told me so
in the morning I'll be on the road
I've been living in the dark
a lifetime of paying my dues
the beating of my heart
in time with these rhythm and blues
Yesterday's a memory
tomorrow never comes
today is syncopated
with the bass and drums
lately I've been spending too much time alone
I'm tired of being lonely
so it's time to go
in the morning I'll be on the road
I've been living in the dark
a lifetime of paying my dues
the beating of my heart
in time with these rhythm and blues
lately I've been spending too much time alone
I'm tired of being lonely
so it's time to go
in the morning I'll be on the road
I've been living in the dark
a lifetime of paying my dues
the beating of my heart
in time with these rhythm and blues
