March on the side of the Interstate parkway
Little vigils mark of the landscape
White sticks where the flowers live

Left with the hope of seeing him again
Left with the hope of seeing her again


It's easy not to recognize
That there were crosses in the road
The secrets that were never told

The river and the trains, so different but the same
They were just getting where they need to go
The decorations at the car window


Hold on to memories, look for a sign that
Talk to gravestone that never seem to talk back

Never knowing what could've been
Left with the hope of seeing him again
Left with the hope of seeing her again


It's easy not to recognize
That there were crosses in the road

The secrets that were never told
The river and the trains, so different but the same
They were just getting where they need to go

Somewhere far from heaven only knows

All this time I'm still haunted by your face tonight

Think of you on your darkest night I wish that I
Could save you from the wreckage of your last goodbye
When I'm lonely I go and see you


And the crosses in the road
The secrets that were never told

The river and the trains, so different but the same
They were just getting where they need to go


And the crosses in the road
The secrets that were never told
The people that we used to know

They were just getting where they need to go
Pay our respects to crosses in the road
Pay our respects to crosses in the road
