Dark Road Lyrics - The Annie Lennox Collection - Annie Lennox

It's a dark road and a dark way that leads to my house 

And the word says, you never gonna find me there, oh no 

I've got an open door, it didn't get there by itself 

It didn't get there by itself 

There's a feelin' but you're not feelin' it at all 

There's a meanin' but you're not listenin' any more 

I look at that open road, I'm gonna walk there by myself 

And if you catch me, I might try to run away 

You know I can't be here too long 

And if you let me I might try to make you stay 

Seems you never realize a good thing till it's gone 

Maybe I'm still searchin' but I don't know what it means 

All the fires of destruction are still burnin' in my dreams 

There's no water that can wash away this longin' to come clean 

I can't find the joy within in my soul, it's just sadness takin' hold 

I wanna come in from the cold and make myself renewed again 

It takes strength to live this way, the same old madness everyday 

I wanna kick these blues away, I wanna learn to live again 

It's a dark road and a dark way that leads to my house 

And the word says, you never gonna find me there, oh no 

I've got an open door, it didn't get there by itself 

It didn't get there by itself
