And the life is never easy, but it's never too far
I took my love to the state I knew of
And the life is never easy, but it's never too far
I took my love to the state I knew of

And I don't think it could have been much clearer
If I'd been shown the way
If I'd been shown the way

And surely I'd know better
But it took me half of my life just to get away
And if I die tomorrow
Then it took me all my life just to get away

And the life is never easy, but it's never too far
I took my love to the state I knew of
And the life is never easy, but it's never too far
I took my love to the state I knew of

And I don't think it could have been much clearer
If I'd been shown the way
If I'd been shown the way

I thought surely I'd do better
The North and '74 seem so far away
And if I'm gone tomorrow
And it took me all my life just to get away

And the life is never easy, but it's never too far
I took my love to the state I knew of
And the life is never easy
No it's never, never easy
Took my love to the state I knew of

And I don't think it could have been much clearer
If I'd been shown the way
If I'd been shown the way

I'm always right then I'm wrong (6x)
I'm always right then I'm...

And the life is never easy, but it's never too far
I took my love to the state I knew of
And the life is never easy, but it's never too far
I took my love to the state I knew of
And the life is never easy, but it's never too far
I took my love to the state I knew of
And the life is never easy, but it's never too far
I took my love to the state I knew of

And I've got a life to live 'till tomorrow (4x)
