The Road

I can still remember
Every song you played
Long ago when we were younger
And we rocked the night awayHow could I see a future then
Or you would not grow old
With such a fire in our belly
Such a hunger in our soulsI guess I probably loved you
When those words rolled off your tongue
Seemed that we were traveling
Under some old lucky sunI know I couldn't save you
And no one was to blame
But the road we shared together once
Will never be the sameHey, gone a long way
Won't be coming 'round again
Hey, with a song I pray
And on wings of a song I'll fly awayI wandered in the wilderness
For a while, I was so lost
To everything there is a season
And every blessing has its costSo I took what you left me
Put it to some use
When looking for an answer
With those three chords and the truthI come down from the mountain
I come walking in your shoes
I was taken for a gambler
When I had no more to loseFor you put me on that pathway
How could I refuse
And I've spend my whole life out here
Working on the bluesHey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, heySo I've carried on
You can't be haunted by the past
People come, people go
And nothing ever lastsBut I still think about you
Wonder where you are
Can you see me from some place
Up there among the stars?But down here under heaven
There never was a chart
To guide our way across
This crooked highway of the heartAnd if it's only all about
The journey in the end
On that road I'm glad
I came to know you, my old friendHey, gone a long way
Won't be coming 'round again
Hey, with a song I pray
And on wings of a song I'll fly awayI'll fly away
I'll fly away
I'll fly away
Oh, oh
