Lyrics On the Road - The Lads

On the Road

Hurting people everywhere it seems\nThe beating heart of life ripped from our dreams\nSo we try to mend the seams\nWe hold on desperately to what we’ve got\nOur sex life, drugs, our friends no matter what\nSo it seems that love is there, life is here\nBut it’s disappeared\n(CH)\nOn the road that I’m going\nOn the road that I choose today\nThere’s a river that is flowing\nThough the road is long\nThe currents of hope are strong\nA man called Jesus Christ once strangely said\nThat life would surely come if we’d be dead\nFor that reason He bled\nDeath is when we give up all we’ve got\nLay down our guns, let Jesus call the shots\nThen I know that love comes in, life begins\nIt’ll never end\n(BRIDGE)\nI could let it slip\nI could let it fall\nSee it slide away\nSay 'I don’t care at all'\nSee my world come crashing down\nAnd my dreams trampled on the floor\nBut my mind’s made up\nI won’t go that way any more\n(CH2)\nOn the road that I’m going\nOn the road that I choose today (it's a narrow way)\nThere’s a river that is flowing\nThough there’s a price to pay\nYou’re gonna experience pain either way\nWhy not turn around, see the power of God surround\nTurn around
