Song Description

SONG OF THE ROAD FROM THE 60S

Lyrics

BLESS THE TIMES

I THINK OF ALL THE PLACES I'VE BEEN
I THINK OF ALL THE FACES AND THE FRIENDS
THAT WERE THERE TO GUIDE ME ALONG
TO MY JOURNEYS END

I THINK OF ALL THE MILES ON MY SHOES
I THINK OF ALL THE THINGS I'VE HAD TO DO
JUST TO LEARN WHAT IT MEANS TO GIVE
NOW I'M TELLING YOU

THERE WERE TIMES I FELT DOWN AND ALONE
THERE WERE TIMES THAT WERE STRANGE AND UNKNOWN
BUT BLESS THE TIMES THAT I TURNED AND I FOUND
SOMEONE THERE TAKING ME HOME

I THINK OF ALL THE RIVERS AND THE ROADS
I THINK OF ALL THE NIGHTS I FELT SO COLD
THEN I'DE MEET A STANGER LIKE ME
AND HE'D LIGHTEN THE LOAD

THERE WERE TIMES I KNEW HUNGER AND FEAR
THERE WERE TIMES WHEN NO ONE SEEMED TO CARE
BUT BLESS THE TIMES THAT A FACE IN THE CROWD
SUDDENLY SMILED DRYIN' MY TEARS

THERE WERE TIMES I FELT DOWN AND ALONE
THERE WERE TIMES THAT WERE STRANGE AND UNKNOWN
BUT BLESS THE TIMES THAT I TURNED AND I FOUND
SOMEONE THERE TAKING ME HOME
