The Road Is Closed

Ernest Tubb

Since that unfaithful day I let you down
My sad eyes have lingered on the ground
If ever now's the time your love should show
I'd like to come home but the road is closed

I'd like to come home but the road is closed
I've tried I've tried heaven knows
But it seems that my conscience carries too big a load
I'd like to come home but the road is closed

There's a fire in my heart I can't explain
And no one but you can ease the pain
Your forgiveness is all that can lighten this load
I'd like to come home but the road is closed

I'd like to come home but the road is closed
I've tried I've tried heaven knows
But it seems that my conscience carries too big a load
I'd like to come home but the road is closed
I'd like to come home but the road is closed
