Ribbon of Highway

Ribbon of Highway - Louise Morrissey

Rolling down that ribbon of highway

I've gone another mile another day

Going places I ain't never been

Seeing things I'll never see again

But I'm gonna keep on keeping on

Till the memories leave me alone

And the pain I felt is finally gone

Then I'll make my way back home

So many years I kept it all inside

Wrecked my emotions and wounded my pride

Feeling guilty over leaving you

Blaming myself for things that I didn't do

Now that it's over and so perfectly clear

It's amazing that I'm even here

I'll carry scars that no one will see

But my sole is finally free

Rolling down that ribbon of highway

I've gone another mile another day

Going places I ain't never been

Seeing things I'll never see again

But I'm gonna keep on keeping on

Till the memories leave me alone

And the pain I felt is finally gone

Then I'll make my way back home

Everyday just a little brighter

I grow stronger with every step I take

I had to fight for this survivor

Oh but I've come a long long way

Rolling down that ribbon of highway

I've gone another mile another day

Going places I ain't never been

Seeing things I'll never see again

But I'm gonna keep on keeping on

Till the memories leave me alone

And the pain I felt is finally gone

Then I'll make my way back home

And the pain I felt is finally gone

Then I'll make my way back home
