lyrics

No matter how sweet
The love that flows
Nature hangs her head
Because she knows
Even the gentlest breeze
With time corrodes
This love’s gone down
A thousand roads

Alone we both
Thought we could stay
'Til love knocked on
Our door one day
Held out her hand
And we both followed
This love's gone down
A thousand roads

We hopped on board
And she led us blind
All our past lovers
Swung on behind
When would we buckle
Under the load?
This love's gone down
A thousand roads

No matter how sweet
The love that flows
Nature hangs her head
Because she knows
Even the gentlest breeze
With time corrodes
This love’s gone down
A thousand roads

We could fill a train
With all our dreams
But these old wheels
Are out of steam
Up until now
They have never slowed
This love's gone down
A thousand roads

In a far off mirror
At the end of the trail
Two dreamless beggars
Growing frail
We both returned
The hearts we had borrowed
This love's gone down
A thousand roads

No matter how sweet
The love that flows
Nature hangs her head
Because she knows
Even the gentlest breeze
With time corrodes
This love’s gone down
A thousand roads
