"10 Miles To Go On A 9 Mile Road"

They tell me miracles abound now more than ever, but I don't
care. They say it's better to be blessed than it is to be clever,
but I don't care. 'Cause I got 10 miles to go on a 9 mile road,
and it's a rocky rough road, but I don't care. For life's nothing if
not a blind rambling prayer, you keep your head held high,
a'walking and a'talking 'til the power of Love deliver you there.
The power of Love deliver you there. The power of Love deliver
you there. The power of Love deliver you...you.... You don't get
nothing for free, 'less of course you steal it, at least that's
what the people say. The sad irony of Love is how so seldom
you feel it, yet it's all you dream about, night and day. From the
splinter in the hand, to the thorn in the heart, to the shotgun
to the head, you got no choice but to learn to glean solace from
pain or you'll end up cynical or dead. Me, I got 10 miles to go
on a 9 mile road and it's a rocky rough road, but I don't care.
For life's nothing if not a blind rambling prayer,
you keep your head held high, a'walking and a'talking and
a'talking and a'walking, 'til the power of Love deliver you there.
The power of Love deliver you there. The power of Love deliver
you there. The power of Love deliver you...THERE!!!Sometimes
you throw yourself into the sea of faith, and the sharks of doubt
come and they devour you. Other times you throw yourself into
the sea of faith only to find the treasure lost in the shipwreck
inside of you! There ain't no guarantees, none of that nonsense
like on tv, just gotta roll the dice, and take your lumps. You're
gonna get yourself knocked down, so better learn to stand back
up, for those who dwell on disaster let sorrow be their master.
Me, I got 10 miles to go on a 9 mile road and it's a rocky rough
road, but I don't care. 'Cause life's nothing if not a blind rambling
prayer, you keep your head held high, a'walking and a'talking 'til
the power of Love deliver you there. The power of Love deliver
you there.
The power of Love deliver you there. The power of Love deliver
you there. My buddy Phillip works as a gas station attendant.
Strangers call his name to him a thousand times a day. They
don't know him, they're just asking "Phillip" for a "fill-up". Funny
how fate plays tricks on us...that way---through the power of
Love.
