When It Don't Come Easy
--words and music by Patty Griffin

Red lights are flashing on the highway
I wonder if we're ever gonna ever get home
I wonder if we're ever gonna ever get home tonight

And everywhere the water's getting rough
Your best intentions may not be enough
I wonder if we're ever gonna get home tonight

	If you break down
	Well I'll drive out and find you
	If you forget my love
	Well I'll try and remind you
	I'll stay by you
	When it don't come easy
	When it don't come easy

I don't know nothing except change will come
Year after year all we do is undone
Time gets moving from a crawl to a run
I wonder if we're ever gonna get home

You're out there walking down the highway
And all the signs got blown away
Sometimes you wonder if you're 
Moving in the wrong direction

	If you break down
	Well I'll drive out and find you
	If you forget my love
	Well I'll try and remind you
	I'll stay by you
	When it don't come easy
	When it don't come easy

So many things that I've had before
They don't matter to me now
Tonight I cry for the love that I've lost
And the love I've never found

When the last bird calls
And the last siren sounds
Someone will say what's been said before
It's only love you're looking for

	If you break down
	Well I'll drive out and find you
	If you forget my love
	Well I'll try and remind you
	And I'll stay by you
	When it don't come easy
	When it don't come easy
