Rest Stop
Life never my final destination
just a long and trying journey
Travelled one love to another
heartbreak away from revelation
The last love shared upon this road
forever holds my heart
Bound tightly by a promise made
though endangered from the start
Tired and weary of the pain
this road has come to cause me
I think I'll stop and rest awhile
and pray love leaves me be
No hearth to heat these weary bones
nor home to call my own
just memories of love passing by
and sins I must atone
Promises of love I've failed to keep
and vows I've failed to honor
remind me of the pain I've caused
and haunt me in my sleep
