lyrics

I WANTED TO

The pavement burns my pale, bare feet
With that stored up August heat
But I will walk on down the road with You
You say, “Well, put some shoes up on them toes,
And here’s a tissue for your nose,
Who said this would be easy to do?”

Did You bring some food to eat
Or will I faint on this here street,
And honey, do You have to walk so fast?
You say, “I’ve food to eat you know not of
And I only get faint with love
But here’s a bite, all you had to do was ask.”

Well, I wanted to, as much as I could choose
I wanted to walk down the road with You
And it might be hard to step up off this yard
But I wanted to walk down the road with You

Don’t You think I’m getting strong,
I ain’t complained in oh, so long,
And please, oh please tell me we’re almost there
You say, “Let them tears roll down your cheeks,
There’s nothing wrong with being weak,
And I will never leave you alone, I swear.” (CHORUS)

Sometimes I just wanna run
Back to the shade from this blazing sun
And I just cannot go another mile
You say, “Baby, we are almost there
With no more sorrows, no more cares
Hang on to me for just a little while (CHORUS)
