That's My Way

(Scott Turner)



Beside the cottonfield I was born

Underneath the tree was my home

A flock of geese flew overhead

Wind from the wings fall down to me

Come go with us, that's my way.



It grieves me much to see you cry

I'll break a heart with my goodbye

I warned you ahead of time

I could never say I'm sorry

But it has to be, that's my way.



That's my way to try to find

A place I've never been

Before directions master me

And distance is my friend

I try to put a lifetime into each and every day

That's my way.



I yearn to love but it can't be

For fear of what's inside of me

With the each day setting of the sun

A passin' train stirs my soul

Like winds of long ago, that's my way.



That's my way, that's my way

That's my way...
