Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well the road is a lonely time
Get back to you babe you know I'm trying
Well the road is a lonely night
Well the road is a lonely night
Sometimes it sure don't treat you right
When I sleep I dream of you
When I wake I hope my dreams come true (they come true)
When I wake I hope my dreams come true
Well the road is a lonely life
Well the road is a lonely life
Sometimes I can't be satisfied
Well I'm crying when I think of you
Well I'm crying when I think of you
When I get home please say that you've been true (you've been true)
When I get home please say that you've been true
Well the road is a lonely time
Well the road is a lonely time
Get back to you babe you know I'm trying (yeah I'm trying)
Get back to you babe you know I'm trying (yeah I'm trying)
Get back to you babe you know I'm trying (yeah I'm trying)
Get back to you babe you know I'm trying

You will never be forgotten Mike. Thank you for all of your advice on following my music and art passions. Mike always had a good sense of humor and always helping others out. He would try to help me break out of my shell with singing because I was nervous asf singing in front of people. He said, "To never give up on my dreams and to keep pushing!" Your daughters are pursuing so much in life and I know your proud of them. 🙏💯🙌💚💚💜💜🖤🖤🖤
