Road to Damascus lyrics

The bus broke down 

on the road to Damascus.

I grabbed my hotel key

and I walked down the hall.

I got down on my knees, 

I said, "Lord, if you're out there,

been down so long, 

just can't take too much more."

I turned to my friends,

but no one said nothin'.

And I thought to myself,

"What a fool you have been.

You always come back

to the road to Damascus,

but you always go home

in the shape you left in."

I spent the whole evenin'

just tellin' my story,

a few things I'd done right,

but a thousand done wrong.

With no one to hear me,

it seemed almost useless.

Just can't explain it,

I've been lost far too long.

I heard miracles happen

on the road to Damascus,

some took this same journey

a long time ago.

And a man just like me

put aside his anger,

walked out the door,

a broke man made whole.

The bus broke down 

on the road to Damascus.

I grabbed my hotel key

and I walked down the hall.

I got down on my knees, 

I said, "Lord, if you're out there,

I just can't take too much more."
