On the Road (To and from Georgia)

On the Road
(To and from Georgia)

It was just twelve thirty
When you phoned
A voice so young and pretty
In that soft Southern tone

A day of tears and laughter
By sand and sea and foam
We’re not sure what we’re after
But we’ll know when we are home

(Chorus)
Point me to the highway
Lead me to the road
I’m a bit uncertain
Of the way to go

You seem to move in circles
And leave me on my own
If the wind should change tomorrow
There’s no telling where you’ll have gone

I am not a gambler
But for you I’d throw the dice
For you I’d gamble everything
To see you satisfied

(Chorus)

Nobody it seems can tell me
The price you have to pay
To keep your lady
And still let her fly away

Maybe one day I’ll discover it
And regain my sight
But I fear it may take longer
Than one journey through this life
