The Road Goes Ever On

Now as I'm sitting here

My life is passing by

I recall the things I've done

I watch the sun

But this is not the end

No the end I'll never see

And I'll be moving on

A sunbeam heats my chest; it's time to rise again

The leaves above whisper to me

I feel the land. I feel the air

Blowing through my hair

Now into the dawn I'm heading again

The hills are calling my name

Like a leaf on the ground I'm blown away

I wasn't born to stay

Living for the roads I see

I'm wild, I'm free

A stranger from the past

But I'm not the last

'Cause the road goes on and on. The road goes on and on

The road goes on and on. The road goes on and on

Don't know if it's a curse or just another kind of blood

But my road goes on and on

Yes the road goes ever on

Now the sun sinks... The air is growing chill

I lie down under just another tree

The last grey daylight dies

Now as I close my eyes

Then the shadows surround me again

The cool wind touches my face

The empty landscape fills my mind

Guess I'm behind my time

And yet I'll always be

Though my time is done

In darkness, in the sun

Travel on

'Cause the road goes on and on; The road goes on and on

The road goes on and on; The road goes on and on

No I'm not antisocial, I'm of another kind

And my road goes on and on

Yes the road goes ever on

You know me in your dreams

Though you hide it well

I'm who you'd wish you were

The traveller

'Cause the road goes on and on; The road goes on and on

The road goes on and on; The road goes on and on

I've lived my life, fulfilled my dreams, I'm not afraid to die

But my road goes on and on

The road goes ever on

The road goes on and on..
