HGI Room 403

Sometimes (Comfort of a Friend)






Sometimes way too long's
another way of saying way too easy
Sometimes letting go
don't have to mean I can't keep holding on

Sometimes what I rhyme
ain't what I tried to say, but I still mean it
Sometimes I keep going knowing
for my trouble all I get is gone

The highway's just a dirty girl
been rode too hard and going nowhere
and I don't need the trouble
But I go and still get on again

Backroads like a drunken bender
wander thisaway and that
though never quite attain their promise
still hold out the comfort of a friend

Sometimes gotta go
is saying I can't sit still here no longer
most times gotta go
is all completely out of my control

Sometimes what I rhyme
comes out from somewhere way off deep inside me
stained around the edges
weary glimpses of a ramblin' soul

Sometimes way too long's
another way of saying way too easy
Sometimes I keep going knowing
for my trouble all I get is gone

THere should be more dirt roads in the world. Is flying still the easiest way of traveling?

Flying SUCKS! But it is faster than driving when you gotta be a lot of different places.

Yeah, it's the most aggrevating means of travel now.
