Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
I'm glad we took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
So glad we made it
Look how far we've come my baby...
Pickin' up the pieces of my sweet shattered dreams
I wonder how the old folks are tonight
Her name was Ann and I'll be damned if I recall her face
She left me not knowin' what to do
Carefree highway, let me slip away on you
Carefree highway, you seen better days
The mornin' after the blues from my head down to my shoes
Carefree highway, let me slip away
Slip away on you
You're beautiful, that's for sure
You'll never ever fade
You're lovely but it's not for sure
That I won't ever change
And though my love is rare
Though my love is true
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is, I don't know where my home is
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is , I don't know where my home is
Tell me one more time again just like I didn't hear you
Like I don't know what's going through your mind, I do
I play the same game too
I know it's hard to stop
Even when you want to
It would be great to be so strong
I never needed anybody else's help to carry on
I don't want to lie about it, I'm not bulletproof
I can see her lyin' back in her satin dress
In a room where ya do what ya don't confess
Sometimes, Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
Sundown ya better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sundown, Sundown ya better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back, my back stairs
Pulled in to Nazareth, was feeling 'bout half past dead I just need some place where I can lay my head
Said `mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?''
He just grinned and shook my hand, "No'' was all he said
Take a load off, Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off, Fanny
And you put the load right on me
I picked up my bag, I went looking for a place to hide
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walking side by side
I said "Hey Carmen, come on, let's go downtown''
She said "I gotta go but my friend can stick around''
Take a load off, Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off, Fanny
And you put the load right on me
Right on me
Look how far we've come my baby
I'm glad we took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
So glad we made it
