A Weary Road

It’s a weary day I got a weary heart It’s a weary road From the very start It’s a weary morning In this weary light It’s a weary phone call That I got last night If I should fall asleep Never wake up Please don’t feel weary You’ve been weary long enough There‘s a midnight message That a friend had died Someone you needed most Whenever weariness arrived Call it weary if you want Believe it if you must It’s just another wind Scattering your dust If any of it matters That something good is gone Please don’t feel shame If you need to cry alone There’s a holiness In all we never did Sanctuary In what we kept hid All the prayers After every confession Never really meant We had learned a lesson It’s a weary ride Toward a weary hug It’s a weary goodbye Between the sadness and the love It’s a weary scripture Then a weary song It’s a weary walk Past the places we have gone If the memories all fade When the ether opens wide Please don’t feel weary Creation was enough of a weary ride
