When the Road Disappears

가사

[Verse 1] You came through the side door, rain on your coat Quarter in the jukebox, dust in your throat The band kept time while the room leaned back You said, “Tell me something true,” so I gave you that I’ve worn these boots through a hundred bad calls Kept one good picture taped up by the hall No silver tongue, no polished disguise Just a hard-earned answer and a tired pair of eyes [Pre-Chorus] If the night gets heavy, put your hand in mine We can lose the trouble one step at a time [Chorus] Come on, give me one more chance to get it right One more turn around this stubborn life I’ve got a rough voice, but the promise is clear I’ll stand beside you when the road disappears [Verse 2] Back then, we were broke but the coffee was strong Made up little futures while the record spun long You laughed at my jacket, I laughed at your plans Then you drew a small heart on the back of my hand Now the rent runs late and the engine runs hot Some dreams stay with you, some dreams do not But I still know the route to the old corner store And I still want to ask what you’re waiting for [Pre-Chorus] If the night gets heavy, put your hand in mine We can lose the trouble one step at a time [Chorus] Come on, give me one more chance to get it right One more turn around this stubborn life I’ve got a rough voice, but the promise is clear I’ll stand beside you when the road disappears [Rap Verse] Look, I’m not selling magic, I’m reporting from the floor Had a key, lost a door, found a reason to knock more Every scar got a lesson, every bill got a date Every “no” put a little more steel in the faith You can count my mistakes, I won’t hide from the sum I’m the man I became when the easy road was gone So if you’re still listening, let the old fear go We don’t need a perfect plan, we just need to move slow [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] You don’t have to carry every year alone You don’t have to call that empty room your home Take the last train out, leave the lock undone There’s a little more mercy underneath the sun [Final Chorus] Come on, give me one more chance to get it right One more turn around this stubborn life I’ve got a rough voice, but the promise is clear I’ll stand beside you when the road disappears Come on, give me one more chance to get it right Put your tired heart against mine tonight I’ve got a rough voice, but I’m staying right here When the road disappears, I’ll still be near [Outro] Still be near Yeah, I’ll still be near
