Willie Nelson – Behind Me Now/El Camino Reprise lyrics

All my best days are behind me now
Photographs tell of my wedding vows
And if you want heroes then I'd sail up to the stars
For all I got beneath my skin are tears and scars

And I've walked in these shoes ten thousand miles
Been through all sorts of berating trials
So if you want heroes then I'll tell you where to go
I'll sell you a map to find the faces that you know
Oh, but for now I'll just be at this all night show
Oh, yes, tonight I'll spend my lonely dollar slow

Yes, I've loved and lost and loved again
Happy ever after's never been
And if you want love then I suggest that you not wait
'Cause I will know not what I've waited heaven's gate

All my best days are behind me now
Still I find a way to live somehow

Well, then all my friends treated me so well
You know I'm headed out to that mission bell
Gonna wash my soul, I'm gonna get it clean
Heading down the border road called the El Camino

Well, I've been a prince and you know I've been a post
By a barb wire fence and a murder of crows
I believe in all I've loved and all I have seen
Heading down the border road called the El Camino
Heading down the border road called the El Camino

Yeah, my heart's grown sick
I got a shepherds crook as a walking stick
And I'm heading on

My heart's gone blue
And I've done wrong by you
I don't know what to do but I'm moving on
Said I'm moving on

One and one is two, two and two is four
And I'm walking back and forth on your cracked tiled kitchen floor
With the orange juice and the sun that shines
It really breaks my heart leavin' you behind
It really breaks my heart leavin' you behind

And all my ships have sailed away
The price of this politic that there's plenty of time to pray
And plenty of time to waste away

Well, to all my friends that I've loved the most
You know I'm heading out to that other coast
I'm gonna wash my soul, I'm gonna get it clean
Heading down the border road called the El Camino
Heading down the border road called the El Camino
