James Keelaghan - Hope Princeton Road lyrics

You come to mind and that lightens my load

The darkness is gathering the clouds overhead

I'm thinking about you and something you said

There's something you said that stands out in my mind

You said I was lonely that made me unkind

You said I should buck up and shoulder the road

Those words made some sense on the Hope Princeton Road

It's always at sunset the Hope Princeton Road

Spirits are high but the ceiling is low

I'm anticipating your bright smiling face

The pleasures awaiting me inside your place

Well inside your place the'll be food and a drink

Something cool maybe a tonic I think

Or maybe some tunes on your new stereo

To counter the hum of the Hope Princeton Road

It's always at sunset the Hope Princeton Road

My heart beat is racing my speed is controlled

I know that you're waiting an hour ahead

But this part is endless you've oft heard it said

You've oft head it said that life is a road

It turns and it straightens, it's fast and it's slow

But all that's no comfort for right now I know

My life is contained on the Hope Princeton Road

It's always at sunset the Hope Princeton Road

You come to mind and that lightens my load

The darkness is gathering the clouds overhead

I'm thinking about you and something you said

There's something you said that stands out in my mind

You said I was lonely that made me unkind

You said I should buck up and shoulder the road

Those words made some sense on the Hope Princeton Road
