Let me hold your breath for a minute in silence
Even if the train is on the wing
Far away from home and the dirty violence
The evening's warm and flowers sing
And I'm looking above city roof and lightening
Coming from the signs and neon walls
And I better escape before I start the fighting
Can't put out a fire with canon balls
Sweet holy road
When ever trouble comes along you're on my mind
Sweet holy road
I guess I'm writing you a song from time to time
Sweet holy road
Are gonna be remembering my name
Sweet holy road
Shall we meet again
And I'm looking above city roof and lightening
Coming from the signs and neon walls
And I better escape before I start the fighting
Can't put out a fire with canon balls
Sweet holy road
When ever trouble comes along you're on my mind
Sweet holy road
I guess I'm writing you a song from time to time
Sweet holy road
Are gonna be remembering my name
Sweet holy road
Shall we meet again
Let me hold your breath for a minute in silence
Far away from home and the dirty violence
And I'm looking above city roof and lightening
Coming from the signs and neon walls
And I better escape before I start the fighting
Can't put out a fire with canon balls
Sweet holy road
When ever trouble comes along you're on my mind
Sweet holy road
I guess I'm writing you a song from time to time
Sweet holy road
Are gonna be remembering my name
Sweet holy road
Shall we meet again
