Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Road I Took to You (Barbara Keith)
Version sung by Ricky Koole:

THE ROAD I TOOK TO YOU

Bread and Water
Like some poor man's daughter
No never for me
Wine and Money called me honey
and made me feel I was real

Like a glass raised too many times
I broke in two.

I was walking around in pieces
and I never even knew that the way back home to me
was the road I took to you.

Winter saw me down and dragging my feet
through the snow
Drinking feeling like I was living on the street
with no place to go.

And cracked in the cod (I can guarantee this is incorrect)
I felt the cold come through.

I was walking around in pieces
and I never even knew that the way back home to me
was the road I took to you.

And now somehow I've ended up with a cup so full.
It's overflowing all the time I know that there is nothing i can hold in my hand.

And it feels so good to me
Just being true
I was walking around in pieces
and I never even knew that the way back home to me
was the road I took to you.
that the way back home to me
was the road I took to you.
