One for the Road Lyrics

I've been away for a while, and I know how its been

It's hard to find a lover in this world of sin

And I hope you'll find what your looking for

I'm sorry I've not been there, I've been taking blows

This world is though to live in and we both know it

And I hope you'll find healing from all the pain

And it's hard to stay soft

In a world that's cold and hopeless

But I pray that your heart

Will stay pure and open

This ain't no ordinary fairy-tale, baby

We live and we learn that trust is earned

And some days everything within us

Wants the world to see us and to see what we've become

But we play for an audience of one

I wish that I could tell you I've been standing strong

Always trusted fathers and known where I belong

But I hide at the very thought of getting hurt

So what I'm here to tell you is this simple truth

Every time in life when I thought I was gonna lose

He has found his way back to me

And it's hard to stay soft

In a world that's cold and hopeless

But your heart is your treasure

So please keep it open

This ain't no ordinary fairy-tale, baby

We live and we learn that trust is earned

And some days everything within us

Wants the world to see us and to see what we've become

But we play for an audience of one

This ain't no ordinary fairy-tale, baby

We live and we learn that trust is earned

And some days everything within us

Wants the world to see us and to see what we've become

But we play for an audience of one

And He stands during the applause every time
