Lyrics The Carpenters – Road Ode

I’ve been on this lonely road so long
Does anybody know where it goes
I remember the last time
The signs pointed home a month ago

Rented cars and empty motel rooms
Lead you everywhere but home
Crowds of people shouting
How they love the show
They don’t know

The endless crowds of faces
Just keep on wearing a smile
The countless times and places lead me back
Please take me back home

I wonder if these feelings ever change
How many times I’ll lift this load

Come tomorrow I’ll be gone again
Roads of sorrow coming to an end for me

The endless crowds of faces
Just keep on wearing a smile
The countless time and places lead me back
Please take me back home

I wonder if these feelings ever change
How many times I’ll lift this load
Come tomorrow I’ll be gone again
Roads of sorrow coming to an end for me
