The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - The Broken Road

The broken road
I set out on the narrow way
Many years ago,
Hoping I would find true love
Along the broken road
I got lost a time or two,
Wiped my brow, kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

[Chorus]
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart, they were just northern stars,
Pointing me on my way, into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That god blessed the broken road that led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent
I'd like to find the time I lost and give it back to you
You just smile and take my hand; you've been there, you understand,
It's all part of a greater plan that is coming true

[Chorus]
