There is a home out of harm´s swift way
I set myself to find
I swore to my love I would bring her there
Then I left my love behind

The desert was long, the mountains high
The road ran steep and winding
The promises so easily made
Unbearable, yet binding

Oh me, oh my
Who´s gonna count my time
Oh me, oh my
Who´s gonna count my time
Time will go, it never stays
Memory locked in her passing
Try, oh try to cling to her
Until she becomes everlasting

The world´s still blue, my word´s still true
I feel I´m turning hollow
She does as she please, if ever she leaves
I´ll strangle upon the sorrow

Oh me, oh my
Who´s gonna mark my time
Oh me, oh my
Who´s gonna mark my time

The road is past, tomorrow the sky
Between sometimes is blinding
Someday soon when I turn to cloud
I will fly on her wings somehow

Wrapped in the road and filled with above
The ground seems to fade away
Hold to the earth like a new born child
Pray she returns someday

Oh me, oh my
Who´s gonna mark my time

Oh me, oh my
Who´s gonna mark my time
Oh me, oh my
Who´s gonna mark my time
Oh me, oh my
Who´s gonna mark my time
