Redemption Road Lyrics

Lookin' back on my troubled past I've finally come to see

The only thing ever standing in my way was me

I want to make amends for my failings before I get too old

So I'm hitchin' a ride down on redemption road

An' this time I'm going to make it count right down the line

Because I see there's so much good life left in me (redemption road)

Take a good look at my life and tell me what you see

Once you've acknowledged your own impropriety (redemption road)

There's so much for us to discover and truths we come to know

When we travel along redemption road

I'm not seeking forgiveness or absolution for my crimes

I've done all my soul searching in the worst of times

But I have a need to redeem myself for all the bad seeds I sowed

So if you're looking for me I'll be down on redemption road

An' this time I'm going to make it count right down the line

Because I see there's so much good life left in me (redemption road)

Take a good look at my life and tell me what you see

Once you've acknowledged your own impropriety (redemption road)

There's so much for us to discover and truths we come to know

When we travel along redemption road

I've spent years trying to hide who I thought no one wanted to see

Yet he's the very person embodying the best of me

Redemption road

An' this time I'm going to make it count right down the line

Because I see there's so much good life left in me (redemption road)

Take a good look at my life and tell me what you see

Once you've acknowledged your own impropriety (redemption road)

'Cause there's so much for us to discover and truths we come to know

When we travel along redemption road oh

When we travel along redemption road the truth we'll come to know

When we travel along redemption road
