Emory Gordy Jr. - Long Stretch of Lonesome lyrics

[Verse 1] Never mind the struggle Never mind these tears I cry Through it all I will stay humble As I keep a watchful eye For that sweeter change of fortune That's closer now than it's been Where the memories that haunt me Are gonna someday be my friend When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end [Verse 2] On some crazy river But I still have control And I will not surrender I'll stay true to heart and soul There's a sea of love awaiting Down at the river's end There I'll drown my sorrows And there I'll live again When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end [Chorus] When that long stretch of lonesome Finally comes to an end My heart belonging to someone It'll never be longing again And the shadows that have dogged me Since I can't remember when Finally gave quarter To the sunlight on my skin When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end [Chorus] And the shadows that have dogged me Since I can't remember when Finally gave quarter To the sunlight on my skin When that long stretch of lonesome When that long stretch of lonesome When that long stretch of lonesome comes to an end
