The Road Is Breaking My Heart

The road is breaking my heart
 And I can barely breathe
 One of us here is bound to stay
 And the other, bound to leave
 The road is breaking my heart
 So is on the move
 How can it be so involuntary and always the thing that I choose?
 Always the thing that I choose
 The road is breaking my heart
 And it's no wonder why
 And I will let it kill me
 Before I let it see me cry
 The road is breaking my heart
 With a vision of us remains
 Somewhere further down the road we're rich, or changing tires in the rain
 You have a child and you're bound to want more
 I cannot provide
 I can't be the man that you want
 In a house where I don't reside
 In a town where I don't reside
 The road is breaking my heart
 And it's no wonder why
 But I will let it kill me
 Before I let it see me cry
 Before I let it see me cry
 The road is breaking my heart
 As I pass through the state line
 The fields are bled of everything
 It's so beautiful, stark, and unkind
 I know roads change and things march along
 And if we can't meet at its end
 If thinking of you is the best I can do
 Then I'll go there time and again
 Yeah, I'll go there time and again
 The road is breaking my heart
 And it's no wonder why
 But I will let it kill me
 Before I let it see me cry
 The road is breaking my heart
 But isn't it breaking them all?
 The travel must be worth the trip
 Before we sputter, and stammer, and fall
 Before we sputter, and stammer, and fall
