I set out on a narrow way Many years ago Hoping I would find true love Along the broken road But I got lost a time or two Wiped my brow and kept pushing through I couldn't see how every sign Pointed straight to you Every long lost dream led me to where you are Others who broke my heart They were just northern stars Pointing me on my way Into your loving arms This much I know is true That God blessed the broken road And led me straight to you
I think about the years I spent Just passing through I'd like to take the time I lost And give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand You've been there, you understand It's all part of His grander plan That is coming true
Every long lost dream, led me to where you are Others who broke my heart They were just northern stars Pointing me on my way Into your loving arms This much I know, I know is true That God blessed the broken road And led me straight to you
Now I'm just rolling home Into your loving arms This much I know, I know is true That God blessed the broken road And led me straight to you That God blessed the broken road And led me straight to you
You sucked me in and played my mind Just like a toy you would crank and wind Baby, I would give til you wore it out You left me lying in a pool of doubt If you're still thinkin' you're the daddy mac You should've known better but you didn't and I can't go back
Oooh, life goes on, and it's only gonna make me strong Its a fact, once you get on board say goodbye 'cause you can't go back Oooh, it's a fight, and I really wanna get it right Where I'm at, is my life before me, got this feeling that I can't go back
Life goes on, life goes on, life goes on...
Wish I knew then what I know now You held all the cards and sold me out Baby, shame on you if you fooled me once, Shame on me if you fooled me twice You've been a pretty hard case to crack I should've known better but I didn't and I can't go back
Oooh, life goes on, and it's only gonna make me strong Its a fact, once you get on board say goodbye 'cause you can't go back Oooh, it's a fight, and I really wanna get it right Where I'm at, is my life before me, got this feeling that I can't go back
Na na na na na life goes on, na na na na na made me strong Got a feeling and I can't go back Life goes on (and it's only gonna make me strong) Life goes on and on and on
Shame on you if you fooled me once, Shame on me if you fooled me twice You've been a pretty hard case to crack I should've known better but I didn't and I can't go back
Oooh, life goes on, and it's only gonna make me strong Its a fact, once you get on board say goodbye 'cause you can't go back Oooh, it's a fight, and I really wanna get it right Where I'm at, is my life before me, got this feeling that I can't go back
Na na na na na life goes on, na na na na na made me strong Whoa, yeah Got a feeling and I can't go back...
