All The Roadrunning (Duet With Emmylou Harris)歌词

all the roadrunning

A million miles our vagabond wheels
Clocked up beneath the clouds

They're counting down to show time
When we do it for real with the crowds

Air miles are owing but they don't come for free
And they don't give you any for pain

But if it's all for nothing

All the road running has been in vain

The rim shots come down like cannon fire

And thunder off the wall

There's a man in every corner

And each one is giving his all

But this is my piper, this is my drum
So you never will hear me complain

And if it's all for nothing
All the road running has been in vain

All the road running
All the road running

Well if you're inclined to go up on the wall

It can only be fast and high

And those who don't like the danger soon
Find something different to try

And when there is only a ring in your ears
And an echo down memory lane

Then if it's all for nothing

All the road running has been in vain

All the road running

All the road running

The show's packing up, I sit and I watch
The carnival leaving town

There's no pretending that I'm not a fool
For riding around and around

Like the pictures you keep of your old wall of death
You showed me one time on the plane

But if it's all for nothing

All the road running, it's been in vain

I've a million miles of vagabond sky

Clocked up above the clouds

And I'm still your man for the roaming

For as long as there's roaming allowed

There'll be a rider and there'll be a wall
As long as the dream remains

And if it's all for nothing

All the road running it's been in vain

All the road running

All the road running
