ive been gone a while away from you
and i hope you overstand
but ive got to do what i must do
to be a better man
cause if i was just to act a fool
and do nothing with myself
then all my blessings would be cursed
my world would crumble in
it's a joy when i sit down and think
of the good times that we have
and what we do to make it through
when the good times turn to bad
well i hope you find it in your heart
and know these words are true
and please don't fuss because i must
go do what i must do
hey baby don't ya worry
even though the road is rocky
i'll be coming home to you again
cause if you thought that i was lost
i had to bear my cross
now im free from all these chains
A TIME A SPACE A DIFFERENT PLACE
HOW PERFECT WE MIGHT BE
i would be the wind that blows
you'd be that willow tree
and i could never bear the thought
of you not by my side
so i would the warmth of day
you'd be the cool of night
and everyday i pray to jah
that one day you will see
and understand the fact
i must fulfill my destiny
i hope you find it in your heart
and know these words are true
and please don't cry
you know that i must do
what i must do
hey baby don't ya worry
even though the road is rocky
i'll be coming home to you again
cause if you thought that i was lost
i had to bear my cross
now im free from all these chains
well and its not easy
jah knows how i try i try
so don't you get weary
jah knows how i try i try
and god knows life is
one big road with alotta
signs and turns and twists and curves
even though the road is rocky
the main scene's to rock
and keep on rockin
from city to city
backyard to yard
and people seein the sights
and standin under the lights
and inspite inside its
cold and lonely at night
and im gleamin and dreamin
that im holdin you tight
but hold on every
single road i roll on
comes to an end and
i'm back home again
so baby please dont cry
there's no valley low and
no mountain high
and our love don't die with
the passage of time
it just grows more
just keeps strong
and even though im gone
i am never too far
your the light through the dark
shining right through my arms
hey baby don't ya worry
even though the road is rocky
i'll be coming home to you again
cause if you thought that i was lost
i had to bear my cross
now im free from all these chains
cause if you thought that i was lost
i had to bear my cross
now im free from all these chains
