| Brave Companion Of The Road Lyrics |
| Nanci Griffith |
| Where are you going there? |
| With your suitcase by the back porch stairs |
| With my heart in your hand |
| In this cold December wind again |
| The cafes and bars are closed |
| The Christmas lights are veiled in snow |
| Tell me where are you going? |
| My brave companion of the road |
| It seems to me that you are lonelier |
| Than I've ever seen you be |
| Oh, it's plain to see |
| That you've gone crazier |
| Than you ever thought you'd be |
| When the lights go down |
| And the dance floor is empty |
| And the crowd is going home |
| I will be waiting |
| For my brave companion of the road |
| Solo(Piano,etc) |
| Some days come up roses |
| Some days just come and go |
| Some nights are so ruhtless |
| That you can't recall the day before |
| This love has seen better days |
| Than home for these holidays |
| Cuz this love has miles for sense of place |
| Oh, my brave compnaion of the road |
| It seems to me that you are lonelier |
| Than I've ever seen you be |
| Oh, it's plain to see |
| That you've gone crazier |
| Than you ever thought you'd be |
| When the lights go down |
| And the dance floor is empty |
| And the crowd is going home |
| I will be waiting |
| For my brave companion of the road |
| Tell me, where are you going? |
| My brave companion of the road |
| I will be waiting |
| For my brave companion of the road |
