Woman of the Road - Jack Hardy

Any port in a storm

you've heard it before

from those whose lives are storm

the eye of the storm

to keep the heart warm

the hurricane shield and the torch

all the waves come crashing through the door

electric heat upon the veins

all the clothes go tumbling to the floor

when will I see you again

Ball and chain
you've heard it before
they're planning to leave
they already left
they can't live without you or with
all they say is old and stale
these are not honorable men
yet you light the candle the same
when will I see you again

old and gray
you've heard it before
when as a child you played roles but all of the men
were boring "good friends"
and all of their love was so cold
please don't stay, please don't go
I am the woman of the road
night and day are much the same
when your eyes have closed
when will I see you again
