This Way Again
(dedicated to Vietnam Vets)

by Sunny Waters

Music

Walkin' down this cold, windy road
Searchin' for a way to ease the load
Never thought I'd pass this way again
Never thought I'd be without a friend

Johnny went away three years ago
Why he had to die I don't know
Mamma says his angel came to call
He took with him a big part of us all

I hit the road to find some time alone
I guess I had a calling of my own
The highway never asks a thing of me
It's neither friend nor enemy

Walkin' down this cold, windy road
Searchin' for a way to ease the load
Never thought I'd pass this way again
Never thought I'd be without a friend

The Autumn winds they blow cold on my soul
The highway rolls on to the sea
What will it take for a man like me
To be free

The years go by and I wonder where they've gone
Another dusk will bring another dawn
Another town another place I roam
Maybe someday I'll be goin' home
Maybe someday I'll be goin' home

Walkin' down this cold, windy road
Searchin' for a way to ease the load
Someone tell me why it had to end
I never thought I'd be without a friend
I never thought I'd pass this way again

Walkin' down this cold, windy road
