There's no well-beaten path

We left nothing along the way

Come too far to turn back

Let the chips fall where they may.

Oh my life

I won't get a chance to go thru it twice

Oh my mind

Is holding on to things I left behind.

They say that you gotta go to know

That you wanna come home

There is no shame till you know

There's right and wrong

We dipped ourselves in the river

But we never get clean

There's no way back to eden

From what I've seen.

Bless my old black dirty heart

Throw these memories away

I'll watch the sky for that morning star

And I will let it light my way.

Oh this life

Is dragging us one and all out of paradise

Oh this time

Is over that hill and rolling down the other side.

They say that you gotta go to know

That you wanna come home

There is no shame till you know

There's right and wrong

We dipped ourselves in the river

But we never get clean

There's no way back to eden

From what I've seen.
