There’s a road

There’s a road
That I walk past nearly every day
But I haven’t wandered off that way
Since I can’t remember when
But today
Gonna take my time and walk that way
Cause I know this sweet and sunny day
Is never gonna come again

Such a shame
All the time we waste inside our head
Things we’re dreaming of and things we dread
Most of which’ll never be
Still, all the while
The train is running down the track 
And it’s never ever coming back
And there’s so much here to see

We each arrive with nothing
Travelers on this foreign land
Create our fragile kingdoms
Like castles in the sand
We strive to reach our pinnacles
Of prominence and pride
Then lie down on the sand
And await the rising tide

There’s a road
One day each of us must walk alone
Lonely footsteps on the cold, hard stone
And there ain’t no coming back
Lord, but today
I’m gonna wrap my arms around this place
Feel the comfort of a warm embrace
And not regret the things I lack

There’s a road
That I walk past nearly every day
But I haven’t wandered off that way
Since I can’t remember when
But today
Gonna take my time and walk that way
Cause I know this sweet and sunny day
Is never gonna come again

Cause I know this sweet and sunny day
Is never gonna come again
