Heart broken but proud hombre wonders how his lover's faith in God could have come between them.

Lyrics

Walk The Road

There’s sadness in my baby’s eyes
And it hurt and left me some surprised
When she said that she was packing up to go
I loved that girl with all my heart
But the Lord has driven us apart
It’s hard to tell which way the wind will blow

I’m not sure I’m a Christian man
But I try to do the best I can
I’m good to folks and live an honest code
And It’s wrong to me that faith can break
The sweetest love I’ll ever make
And leave me lost and wandering down the road

I know that I’m not ready to see the other side
To walk the road with Jesus, forgo my earthly pride
I’ll live here with my sorrows and look to Heaven’s light
But I don’t think I’ll be talking – to Jesus on this night

The light that shines from deep within
Is where the heart of faith begins
But it’s hard to see it from the other side
I’ve tried my best to walk on through
The door that keeps me far from you
The light that shines has always been denied

I’ve looked to God to set things right
And prayed that you’ll return one night
I hoped the light would finally shine on me
But I can’t lie and say I feel
A faith that makes the whole thing real
Though I wait in hopes that He will set me free

I know that I’m not ready to see the other side
To walk the road with Jesus, forgo my earthly pride
I’ll live here with my sorrows and look to Heaven’s light
But I don’t think I’ll be talking – to Jesus on this night
