Lyrics Richard Thompson

Richard Thompson

She Never Could Resist a Winding Road

In the old cold embers of the year

When joy and comfort disappear

I search around to find her

I'm a hundred miles behind her

The open road whispered in her ear

She never could resist a winding road

She never could resist a winding road

Maybe just around the bend

The rainbow waiting at the end

She never could resist a winding road

She never could stay any place too long

To not be standing still's where she belongs

If you love her, better know

She needs you now, but soon she'll go

She never could stay any place too long

It's not that she don't care about you

Say you love her, she don't doubt you

But she can learn to live without you

When she hears the call

Love her now then let her be

Don't tie her down, just set her free

Too many things she wants to see

The whole world, that's all

She never could resist a winding road

She never could resist a winding road

Maybe just around the bend

The rainbow waiting at the end

She never could resist a winding road

She never could resist a winding road
