Sunset Seeker - Lessons of the Road Lyrics

I've walked through those fire nights
Lost love found it in the morning light
From the plains of Texas
To the hills of Tennessee
I've learned the hard way what it means to be free

'Cause I've gained some wisdom
From losing it all
And I've found the strength to stand tall
You don't wanna go my way
Lessons learned the hardest way
But it shapes who we are today

Left my heart in pieces
On the road and in old lovers' arms
Found hope in the sunset
Lost it to the midnight stars
There's no map to guide you when you've gone this far

'Cause I've gained some wisdom
From losing it all
And I've found the strength to stand tall
You don't wanna go my way
Lessons learned the hardest way
But it shapes who we are today

I've seen the faces of the lost and found
In the echoes of a lonesome town
From the dusty deserts
To the coastal breeze
Every mile taught me who I'm meant to be

'Cause I've gained some wisdom
From losing it all
And I've found the strength to stand tall
You don't wanna go my way
Lessons learned the hardest way
But it shapes who we are today

In the quiet of the night I hear the lessons call
Whispered truths in the shadows standing tall
Every scar a story every tear a sign
Of the battles fought and the dreams that are mine

So as the road stretches on and the days grow old
With every twist and turn another story told
Remember the lessons the highs and the lows
For it's the journey not the destination that shows
