The Road Is Long

The road is long… The road is long,

my love But I can see the morning Waiting somewhere

up ahead

(hmmm) Keep walking… I’m right behind you

I’ve crossed the nights that had no answers I’ve carried storms inside

my chest I’ve watched the world become so heavy Still I kept

moving with the rest I’ve lost a little,

learned a little Found some gold inside the pain And every mile

that tried to break me Only taught me how to rise again

When your feet get tired—

I’ll still go on

When the light gets low— I’ll hold on (oh-oh) The road is

long But we were built to carry on

The road is long… The road is long,

oh we

But we keep moving We keep moving

Through the dark Through the rain

Through the fire Through the pain

The road is long… But we’re still here

And that means everything

I’ve seen the silence test our patience I’ve seen the distance change

our view But every road that bends before us Still keeps bringing

me to you

I don’t need to know the ending I don’t need the whole

design

If your hand is here beside me Then the journey will be

fine

(take your time) (don’t lose yourself)

I’m not leaving

Is it far? Maybe.

Are you tired?

A little.

Should we stop?

Not tonight.

(the road is long…)

Inde lendlela… Inde, we… (still we move)

Still we move

If tomorrow comes with mountains

I will climb them slowly If tomorrow brings the river

I will cross it with you

And if darkness comes again?

Then we become the light

We become the light

The road is long!

The road is long,

oh we! But look how far

Look how far we’ve come!

Through the dark Through the rain Through the fire

Through the pain We are still moving!

Still believing! Still becoming who we came to be!

(I won’t turn back!) (Neither will I!) The road is long… But

we are stronger than the road!

The road is long… Keep walking

The night is deep… Keep walking The mountain high…

Keep walking Until we see the morning!

Inde lendlela… Inde, we… But we’re still moving
