One Walks With A Golden Stride
My angel loves it when I’m good
My demon when I’m bad
What makes my dark half happy
The other side makes sad
I’ve tried it down the middle
But narrow is the way
Distractions off to either side
I always went astray
I have seen the heavens
And I have seen the pits--------------- {Chorus
The difference in the journey
Is who I’m goin’ with?
The angel on my right side
The devil on my left
One walks with a golden stride
The other with a cleft
I hear that moderation
In all things is the key
But takin’ just a little
Is not my way to be
There’s things goin’ the right way
That make my spirit soar
But things out on the other
That make my juices roar
I have seen the heavens
And I have seen the pits--------------- {Chorus
The difference in the journey
Is who I’m goin’ with?
The angel on my right side
The devil on my left
One walks with a golden stride
The other with a cleft
Turnaround---- 8 Bars
I have done my very best
To make my angel smile
If you think that’s easy
Come walk with me a while
If you see me stumble
Or if you see me fall
Realize this one thing
I’m human after all
I have seen the heavens
And I have seen the pits--------------- {Chorus
The difference in the journey
Is who I’m goin’ with?
The angel on my right side
The devil on my left
One walks with a golden stride
The other with a cleft
One walks with a golden stride
The other with a cleft
