AMERICA - MAN'S ROAD lyrics

rate me

Written by Jimmy Webb, ©1982

Found on The Last Unicorn Soundtrack and Your Move (French import only).

Horizon rising up to meet the purple dawn

Dust demon screaming, bring an eagle to lead me on

For in my heart I carry such a heavy load

Here I am on Man's road, walking Man's road, walking Man's road

I'm hungry, weary, but I cannot lay me down

The rain comes, dreary, but there's no shelter I have found

It will be a long time till I find my abode

Here I am on Man's road, walking Man's road

Moon rising, disguising lonely streets in gay displays

The stars fade, the night shade falls and makes the world afraid

It waits in silence for the sky to explode

Here I am on Man's road, walking Man's road, walking Man's road

Walking Man's road, walking Man's road, walking Man's road
