Gwyneth Moreland Broken Road Lyrics

Snake of light above me keep my feet upon the path
Keep my footsteps steady strong and hide my heart from wrath
Save a sack of grain for the horse for when it snows
And send word to my baby that I walk a broken road

Snake of light above me guide me home to sleep
Footsteps lost in darkness and promises to keep
If my busking heart should play me like a fiddle poorly bowed
Then send word to my baby that I walk a broken road

If the sun and moon collide
If the road should leave my feet
Oh my thirst be satisfied Oh the reaper I will cheat
Oh send word to my baby that I walk a broken road

Keep the leering faces from the roadside as I pass
Wash me with the sweetest dew that grows upon the grass
Keep my spine straight as fire and fear within me stowed
And send word to my baby that I walk a broken road

If the sun and moon collide
If the fates should lead me home
Oh my thirst be satisfied
I'll settle down nomore to roam
Oh send word to my baby that I walk a broken road
