You came down as if from heaven Laid a soft hand on me I kept on walking and thinking Where my life's gone I should weep Well I don't know where I've been going I've never known the reason why So listen to me I'm scared to cry The angel sat down at my table I told her all my doubts and pain She said there always is a time for love That it will come to me again But I don't know where I've been going I've never known the reason why So listen to me I'm scared to cry Well I don't know where I've been going I've never known the reason why So listen to me I'm scared to cry Yeh listen to me I'm scared to cry Without me you would be nowhere All alone I've cared You owe it all to me

Looking back, who would've guessed? Gotta say I'm pretty blessed I was thinking just the other day Could've gone either way I'm amazed at what God does 'Cause for a while there I was Just a lone star in the sky 'Til you walked into my life Without you, girl, no telling where I'd be Through a million twists and turns And a thousand lessons learned It's been one long road from Texas to Tennessee Every step, every storm You were there like a brand-new dawn Showing me your love and grace Even on my darkest days I'm a better man for sure Than the man I was before Just a lone star in the sky 'Til you walked into my life Without you, girl, no telling where I'd be Through a million twists and turns And a thousand lessons learned It's been one long road from Texas to Tennessee Through a million twists and turns And a thousand lessons learned It's been one long road from Texas to Tennessee Been one hell of a road from Texas to Tennessee

They don't need ya, need ya like I do They don't see the details of you Who gon' please you, please you like I do?

Hungry is my state of mind Bad love left me high and dry World is getting hotter Lead me to the water You know I need some Ah ah would you kill for your own that's how I feel in my bones Aye la la lions going rah rah And you pray you're not prey Everyday, everyday yeah I can't see the world that you want me to see I won't be the man that you want me to be Darkness creeping late at night Knows just how to talk to me when I'm tired Feeding on my weakness Planted in the season when I was so young Would you kill for your own that's how I feel in my bones Aye la la lions going rah rah And you pray you're not prey Everyday, everyday yeah I can't see the world that you want me to see I won't be the man that you want me to be I won't let the devil get over But when the water's boiled up and the pot starts to burn You start to understand the man Oooh, yeah
