The Long Road歌词

[00:48.71]You've walked a long road and you've worn it well
[00:54.39]You stitched yourself up when you fell
[00:58.75]Keep your memories in jars
[01:01.53]Carry secrets and scars beneath your shell
[01:10.15]You've seen some good days and some bad ones too
[01:15.73]You weave through fashion and trend
[01:21.45]You've seen the sun rise on an ocean blue
[01:25.80]You've seen it set for the dearest of friends
[01:29.27]
[01:32.27]You found faith but you chose to doubt it
[01:37.52]You found love but you left without it
[01:43.30]Now you don't want to talk about it
[01:47.33]
[01:57.72]You travelled down through foreign lands
[02:00.39]Touched mountain tops and golden sands
[02:03.15]Seen pyramids and temples made of stone
[02:08.55]Keep seashells in a cashmere scarf
[02:11.48]A treasured book of photographs
[02:13.70]In every single one you stand alone
[02:18.46]You've seen Vienna and the Berlin wall
[02:22.13]As you watch the decades fall
[02:24.44]The letters that you wrote never made it home
[02:30.18]Your birthdays flew past like June
[02:32.44]With Christmas days in hotel rooms
[02:35.54]And New Year's eve with people you don't know
[02:38.64]
[02:42.60]You built friendships but they sailed without you
[02:47.31]You never meant it and that's why they doubt you
[02:52.74]And they don't ever talk about you
[02:56.86]
[03:02.12]You're older than you used to be
[03:05.00]The mirror weaves a tapestry
[03:07.72]Of lines that dance and shimmer 'round your eyes
[03:12.93]You stare back at a man, forever holding out his hand
[03:17.59]As if the answer is gonna fall out of the sky
[03:23.82]But the penny never dropped
[03:26.60]And no man has ever stopped time from flying by
