While I recall all the words you spoke to me
A lonely road crossed another cold state line
I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed
But I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed
Miles away from those I love, purpose hard to find
Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
Can't help but wish that I was there, back where I'd love to be, oh yeah
Dear God, the only thing I ask of You
Dear God, the only thing I ask of You
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired, I'm missing you again, oh no, once again
I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed
Dear God, the only thing I ask of You
There's nothing here for me on this barren road
’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired, I'm missing you again, oh no, once again
There's no one here while the city sleeps and all the shops are closed
We all need that person who can be true to you
I gave in to selfish ways
We all need the person who can be true to you
Before long they waste away
Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away
And how I miss someone to hold when hope begins to fade
Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
Well, some search never finding a way
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah
I found you, something told me to stay
