You can always set it down If it's too heavy alone Cause the things we carry in this life are made of stone Your arms are tired Feet are sore And all of this weight you cant take anymore Memories of people I once knew Old friends and loved ones Lost in the black and blue So set it down If it's too heavy alone Cause the things we carry in this life are made of stone Your back is tired Feet are sore And all of this weight You can't take anymore Memories of people I once knew Old friends and loved ones lost in the black and blue

By the time you get there The store's already closed And the people around you All look down their noses At the dirt on your face And the holes in your clothes By the time you get there, The store's already closed By the time you get there The store's already closed And the reasons you came here Have all gone up in smoke It's a little too late And the race just gets old By the time you get there The store's already closed We've had hard work And heart aches It goes round and round We've all hurt somebody... And we've all been let down... By the time you get there The store's already closed And the people around you All look down their noses At the dirt on your face And the holes in your clothes By the time you get there, The store's already closed By the time you get there The store's already closed And the reasons you came here Have all gone up in smoke It's a little too late And the race just gets old By the time you get there The store's already closed We've had hard work And heart aches It goes round and round We've all hurt somebody... And we've all been let down... By the time you get there The store's already closed And the people around you All look down their noses At the dirt on your face And the holes in your clothes By the time you get there, The store's already closed

The stranger in the room Hasn't spoken a word Since June And we can't make up our minds Living on borrowed time But what else can you do? The stranger in the room Hardly mentions a word bout you And we can't go on in stride With these wounds that hurt out pride All that we've been through The stranger in the room Hardly says a word to you He just can't make up his mind Living on borrowed time Oh, but what's a boy to do? Am I the stranger in the room? Am I the stranger in the room?

It's been three years since I left home Another night on the road And I hope and pray I see you again If life is just a mystery Could we rewrite history Are we all the things They say that we've been Sweet Daisy D Won't you come back home To Tennessee Cause I miss Your pretty smile Angel Eyes And a tired mind Just like mine Oh Just like mine Ain't nothing left but the Kudzu vines that swallowed up my worried mind And choked me out And Left me here to die We've all been sitting on the fence It don't make no damn good sense Why we play along, But never say goodbye Sweet Daisy D Won't you come back home To Tennessee Cause I miss Your pretty smile Angel Eyes And a tired mind Just like mine Oh Just like mine

The Witch and the cowboy Tangled up in their mess His dusty old boots and Her favorite dress Dance under cold pale fire Would she ever know The he'll he'd endured Just to be by her side The Witch and the cowboy Tangled up in their mess His dusty old boots and Her favorite dress Dance under cold pale fire Would she ever know The he'll he'd endured Just to be by her side And hell is a hard road, I'd walk it again If I knew I'd see you, in the end Fight as they will And stubborn to boot I never saw a love so true

Tears in your eyes Won't stop The rains from falling The debts from calling After you So Just let it go Let it go... So dry your eyes, My love The rain will fall Can't stop it all So just let it go Let it go... Oh Tomorrow ain't promised And we don't get time To live... Tears in your eyes Won't stop The rains from falling...
