Some things just ain't worth talkin' about
Like those hard times, past loves
And drownin' the sound
With some old Travis song
You feel in your bones so well
Yeah I know
Life around you can get real hard
When the night comes quick
You're sleepin' alone
But just trust me when I say
That you got it all
In the palm of your hands
You got a long ways
Yeah you got a long ways
You got a long ways
To figure it out
Take the dark road
Let them lights guide you 'round
Those old poplar backwood trees
Where all your days began
With the good times
Of growin' on up
It's okay love
Life is done full of
The ups and downs
But it always straightens on up
You got a home right behind you always
To love you
When you cannot love yourself
You did some walkin' past your high school street
How's your old friends?
Back when y'all used to be
Close as three green peas in a pod
When things got rough
Then a trip to the market turned a red to your cheeks
When you saw him
Walkin' down the isle to meet
You looked him right in the eyes
And you were bound to fall in love for good
You got a long ways
Yeah you got a long ways
Yeah you got a long ways
To figure it out
Take the dark road
Let them lights guide you 'round
Those old poplar backwood trees
Where all your days began
With the good times
Of growin' on up
It's okay love
Life is done full of
The ups and downs
But it always straightens on up
And you got a home right behind you always
To love you
When you cannot love yourself
It's a real tough time, when you lose your way
It's a real long life, but you'll be okay
'Cause your people got your back
Through it all
It's okay to break, we all have those days
It's okay to fall, 'cause that comeback makes
You feel alive
And turn a pain
To dead
And
Gone
You got a long ways
Yeah you got a long ways
Hey!
Yeah you got a long ways
To figure it out
Take the dark road
Let them lights guide you 'round
Those old poplar backwood trees
Where all your days began
With the good times
Of growin' on up
It's okay love
Life is done full of
The ups and downs
But it always straightens on up
Yeah you got a home right behind you always
To love you
When you cannot love yourself
