The Road

Verse 1

I've been walking for days

Every turn is the same

The weight I carry bends my spine

I can't remember when I crossed the line

The stones are sharp, the wind is cold

I'm getting tired, I'm getting old

Each mile ahead looks just the same

I almost forgot my own name

Pre-Chorus

But then I see it, far away

A ray of light that breaks the gray

I try to reach it, try to run

But my legs won't move, I'm done

Chorus

The road is long, the night is deep

I made a promise I can't keep

I see the light, I see the dawn

But I don't have the strength to go on

I'm falling down, I'm losing ground

There's nothing left, no solid ground

I close my eyes, I let it be

The road has finally conquered me

Verse 2

But then I feel your hand on mine

Warm and steady, soft and fine

I turn my head, and there you stand

With quiet strength and gentle hand

You say you won't let me walk alone

You'll carry me, you'll be my stone

Lean on you, and you hold me tight

We'll face the darkness, face the night

Pre-Chorus

I can't see the end

But you see me

I can't take another step

Then you'll take two for me

Chorus

The road is long, the night is deep

But now I have a promise to keep

I see the light, I see the dawn

And with your hand, I can go on

I was falling down

But you caught my ground

We're not alone, we're not defeated

The road is hard, but we're completed

Bridge

I thought I'd walk this path in vain

But love will ease the heaviest pain

I couldn't see beyond the bend

Now you're my light, you are my friend

Every step we take is two

Every mile is made anew

The road ahead may still be long

But together we belong

Chorus

The road was long, the night was deep

But now we have a promise to keep

We see the light, we see the dawn

And hand in hand, we're moving on

You gave me strength

You gave me heart

We're walking forward, never apart

The road is ours, the light is near

With you beside me, I have no fear

Outro

One more step

One more mile

Together now

Together still
