That's My Way

(David Turner)



Beside the cottonfield I was born

Underneath the tree was my home

A flock of geese flew over head

Wind from the wings call 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 in to 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 passing train stirs my soul

like winds of long ago that's my way.

That's my way, that's my way...
