Cross Beside the road

VS 1
It was early in the morning I was on my way to work
Hadn't even buttoned up my red flannel shirt
There was a dump truck straight in front of me
I don't remember if I saw it or if I fell asleep
Now they're rumors and stories that are told
about how I became a cross beside the road
Chorus
A cross beside the road is where you can see me now
I'd like to talk to you but I just don't know how
The cross beside the road is not where I'll sleep tonight
I wish that I could see you and tell you I'm alright
There's a cross beside the road in memory of me
I'm not really there I'm walking on golden streets

The night before I went to ingles then watched some TV
Played on the floor with our little baby
If I'd known it was my last night here on this earth
I'd made sure my girl knew that I really loved her
I wish my boy knew me but he was just a year old
now he sees me as the cross beside the road
Chorus
A cross beside the road is where you see me now
I'd like to talk to you but I just don't know how
The cross beside the road is not where I'll sleep tonight
I wish that I could see you and tell you I'm alright
There's a cross beside the road in memory of me
I'm not really there I'm walking on golden streets

The Cross reminds me of me and you
two things bonded together and proud of Andy Roo
