about

The Road Goes On looks back on the past. The song relives life's joys and sorrows, and it's fortunes and hardships.

lyrics

The road goes on through twists and turns
It’s quite the journey there are lessons that are learned
And even though, I’ve seen hard times
When I look back I stand in awe of what’s behind

When cold rain came falling down
Drenching me from head to toe
I kept my hopes alive
And made a promise down the road I would go

As I kept on, soon that rain passed
The sun came shining down lighting up my path
The trees came alive and the birds sang aloud
That road kept calling me I went without a doubt

Time is a strange little child
Playing with our lives
Fitting pieces of the puzzle in place
Which we cannot replace

Our love grew strong, I took your hand
Went down that road and etched our name upon the sand
We rambled round and found a little place that we called home
Now I can’t imagine life without you all alone

It’s hard to go without you by my side
That mountain is steep and the canyon’s wide
When my horizon ends
I’ll find peace make my soul’s amends

And when our path, forks again
That road keeps turning while the journey never ends
One day our souls will be the sun and the rain
That road keeps going it just calls on different names

Time is a strange little child
Playing with our lives
Fitting pieces of the puzzle in place
Which we cannot replace
