Well I've been shattered and broken, for most of my life But I've done pretty good, with a job and a wife Got a family that loves me, and a good piece of land That I bought with hard work, that I earned with these hands These things that I do I did them for you So just tell me you love me, and tell me you'll stay And you'll watch over this house, while I go away And just promise to be here, when I get back home So we can start where we left off, all those years ago Before my demons... they took control Lost and lonely, out here on the road Cause I've been careless and selfish, got no self respect I'm an albatross hanging around my own neck I'm a hard one to handle, and I've played the fool And I'm so hard to love, cause I break all the rules These things that I do Cause I couldn't have you So just tell me you love me, and tell me you'll stay And you'll watch over this house, while I go away And just promise to be here, when I get back home So we can start where we left off, all those years ago Before my demons... they took control Lost and lonely, out here on the road So just tell me you love me, and tell me you'll stay And you'll watch over this house, while I go away And just promise to be here, when I get back home So we can start where we left off, all those years ago Before my demons... they took control Lost and lonely, out here on the road Lost and lonely, out here on the road
