Levon Helm

Wide River To Cross


Verse: 1
There's a sorrow in the wind
Blowing' down the road I've been
I can hear it cry while shadows steal the sun
But I can not look back now
I've come to far to turn around
And there's still a race ahead that I must run
Chorus:
I'm only half-way home I gotta jour-ney on
To where I'll find the things that I have lost
I've come a long long road still I've got miles to go
I've got a wide wide river to cross
Verse: 2
I have stumbled I have strayed
You can trace the tracks I made
All a-cross the memo-ries my heart recalls
But I'm just a refu-gee won't you say a prayer for me
Cause some-times even the strongest soldier falls
