A lonely road, crossed another cold state line  Miles away from those I love, purpose hard to find  While I recall all the words you spoke to me  Can't help but wish that I was there  Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah   Dear God, the only thing I ask of you  Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away  We all need that person who can be true to you  But I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed  Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired, I'm missing you again oh no  Once again   There's nothing here for me on this barren road  There's no one here while the city sleeps  And all the shops are closed  Can't help but think of the times I've had with you  Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah   Dear God, the only thing I ask of you  Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away  We all need that person who can be true to you  But I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed  Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired, I'm missing you again oh no  Once again  Some search, never finding a way  Before long, they waste away  I found you, something told me to stay  I gave in, to selfish ways  And how I miss someone to hold  When hope begins to fade  A lonely road, crossed another cold state line  Miles away from those I love, purpose hard to find   Dear God, the only thing I ask of you  Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away  We all need that person who can be true to you  But I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed  Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired, I'm missing you again oh no  Once again
