Sacrifice Lyrics
Thought about the folks back home
All those miles that we had roamed
Still can see your pretty hair
When I come back will you be there
You flew away like a kite
I hope you find your light
I pray they treat you right
What a sacrifice
Miles and miles I have roamed
Lookin' for that home sweet home
Thought I had the love with you
But I found out that you weren't true
You made me feel so nice
ready for wedding rice
then you said no dice
What a sacrifice
Lookin' back on time that's gone
I realize I might have been wrong
But Macon took you for a ride
They broke us up for their own pride
But you were young and didn't understand
That you had found your lifetime man
Maybe some[day] you'll see
It gets lonely being free
So don't be wrong twice
What a sacrifice
All those miles that we had roamed
Still can see your pretty hair
When I come back will you be there
You flew away like a kite
I hope you find your light
I pray they treat you right
What a sacrifice
Lookin' for that home sweet home
Thought I had the love with you
But I found out that you weren't true
You made me feel so nice
ready for wedding rice
then you said no dice
What a sacrifice
I realize I might have been wrong
But Macon took you for a ride
They broke us up for their own pride
But you were young and didn't understand
That you had found your lifetime man
Maybe some[day] you'll see
It gets lonely being free
So don't be wrong twice
What a sacrifice

first time I heard this was a few days ago despite being a steve miller fan for 30 years. Cannot believe no one has commented on this awesome song. I believe the lyrics are pretty straight forward. A man can't catch a break when it comes to love and he's continually searching for that true love that he'll never find
