Thumbing My Way

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
I have not been home since you left long agoI'm thumbing my way back to heavenCounting steps, walking backwards on the roadI'm counting my way back to heavenI can't be free with what's locked inside of meIf there was a key, you took it in your handThere's no wrong or right,But i'm sure there's good and badThe questions linger overheadNo matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime aheadI'm thumbing my way back to heavenI wish that i could hold youI wish that i hadThinking 'bout heavenI let go of a rope, thinking that's what held me backAnd in time I've realized,It's now wrapped around my neckI can't see what's next,From this lonely overpassHang my head and count my steps,As another car goes pastAll the rusted signsWe ignore throughout our livesChoosing the shiny ones insteadI turned my back, now there's no turning backNo matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime aheadI smile, but who am i kidding?I'm just walking the miles,every once in a while i'll get a rideI'm thumbing my way back to heavenThumbing my way back to heavenI'm thumbing my way back to heaven...
