The JJ Ford Band - Redemption (Song For A Lost Cause)

There is a road, the long way to her door
When life is hard and you dare not ask for more
And when she comes, she comes in gilded light
To soothe away all the terrors of the night
But there is another road which leads you to the edge
Where life and love are intertwined and balanced on the ledge
The waves lap gently on the shore, they sing their lullaby
Transport you to a better place with dreams of times gone by
And now I'm looking back upon the future which I chose
The roads which we all stagger down, the truths which we suppose
The limits of ambition keep us rooted to the ground
And in the forest, far away, leaves fall without a sound
Once there was a girl, she held me to her breast
She soothed my soul, she laid my fears to rest
My garden grew in shades of red and green
And black and white and purple in between
But watch out for the other one - she'll tear your world apart
When love and hate feel just the same and pierce you to the heart
The winds blow cold against your door, your ship is sinking down
You need someone to rescue you, I fear that you may drown
