for a song - mark erelli lyrics

weathered stones
i fished out from some rushing mountain stream
yellowed books, with dog-eared pages
wildflowers pressed between
postcards from every place i laid me down to sleep
little souvenirs to remind you of me

oh the road is not your friend
it’s just a means to an end
how i wish i could take you along
but i take it all on faith
you’ll understand someday
why i did all i did while i was gone
for a song

i catch a glimpse
a glint off something shining somewhere in the great unknown
like a beast
i chase it over hills and mountains, valleys, rivers, til it’s cornered on a scr-p of paper
on a bedside table in some cheap motel
where the highway drones
sometimes it feels like church, sometimes like i’m the last man on earth
just a voice howling out into the darkness

oh the road is not your friend
it’s just a means to an end
i’ll be home late, don’t wait up, just leave a light on
but i take it all on faith
you’ll understand someday
why i did all i did while i was gone
for a song

oh the road is not your friend
it’s just a means to an end
how i wish i could take you along
but i take it all on faith
you’ll understand someday
why i did all i did while i was gone
for a song
