The Road Is Breaking My Heart - Carbon Leaf

The road is breaking my heart

And I can barely breathe

One of us here is bound to stay

And the other, bound to leave

The road is breaking my heart

So is on the move

How can it be so involuntary and always the thing that I choose?

Always the thing that I choose

The road is breaking my heart

And it’s no wonder why

And I will let it kill me

Before I let it see me cry

The road is breaking my heart

With a vision of us remains

Somewhere further down the road we’re rich, or changing tires in the rain

You have a child and you’re bound to want more

I cannot provide

I can’t be the man that you want

In a house where I don’t reside

In a town where I don’t reside

The road is breaking my heart

And it’s no wonder why

But I will let it kill me

Before I let it see me cry

Before I let it see me cry

The road is breaking my heart

As I pass through the state line

The fields are bled of everything

It’s so beautiful, stark, and unkind

I know roads change and things march along

And if we can’t meet at its end

If thinking of you is the best I can do

Then I’ll go there time and again

Yeah, I’ll go there time and again

The road is breaking my heart

And it’s no wonder why

But I will let it kill me

Before I let it see me cry

The road is breaking my heart

But isn’t it breaking them all?

The travel must be worth the trip

Before we sputter, and stammer, and fall

Before we sputter, and stammer, and fall

La da da da da de day

La da de da da da de day

La da de da da da de day

La da de dayyyy

La da da dayyy mmmmm
