Love is the Only Goal

‘Cross the shadowy Rockies and the wind-driven snow
And the brown desert sand of Mojave

Where the silent birds fly into the sunset’s glow
You will find all that is left of me

When the hard dry winds came down to the valley
I remember the message they were bringing

They said, “pack all your things and go out through the country
Let the seeds carry your singing”

On a hard road where love is the only goal
It’s a hard road oh love is the only goal
Such a hard road oh love is the only goal
Love is the only goal

The towns, the towns, the people and their faces
And their eyes always seem to be gleaming

I can tell you the names, I can show you the places
But I can never can tell you the meaning

Of a hard road where love is the only goal
Such a hard road oh love is the only goal
It’s a hard road oh love is the only goal
Love is the only goal

The miners still sweat in the veins of this country
As do the men behind the desk and the counter

Some love the home, some love the money
I bet some love the search for an answer

On a hard road where love is the only goal
It’s a hard road oh love is the only goal
Such a hard road oh love is the only goal
Love is the only goal

‘Cross the shadowy Rockies and the wind-driven snow
And the brown desert sand of Mojave

Where the silent birds fly into the sunset’s glow
You will find all that is left of me

On a hard road where love is the only goal
Such a hard road oh love is the only goal
It’s a hard road oh love is the only goal
Love is the only goal
Love is the only goal
