There’s a road we all come to learn
Leading to our old dream home
But it’s a slow machine that’ll turn to gravel
Pieces of the hills we roam
And you will walk the long road alone
Farther than your steps could show
But it’s enough to see how far you’ve traveled
Wading through a river of stone
You can walk away from the ground you grow on
And wander like a railroad track
But its a hard road and you know it’s something
Something you can never take back
And you will walk the long road alone
A rebel till your heart beats slow
But when it calms the sea for moss to gather
On the ripples and the stone you toss
There’s a road we’re all born to cross,
Return into the hills we roam
And you would not believe the world that’s waiting
Waiting just to carry you home
You can walk away from the ground you grow on
And wander like a railroad track
But its a hard road and you know it’s something
Something you can never take back
