here on the road to tomorrow
footprints drift back
into the past
as we turn to learn
where we’ve come to be
we can see the leaves have changed
but nothing changes how i feel
i stand in awe of you
i see you watching out for me
there’s so much I must do for you
the truth is that I love you more
with every passing day
on this journey of
so many steps
we’ve wandered through our dreams
it seems to me
we’ve plucked them easy
from those meadows by the sea
but then there were the mountains
the rivers and the streams
the thunder and the raindrops
the times we took to cry and
the times we picked ourselves back up
to give it one more try
now I look into your eyes
the sunlight shining down
windows in the wall
we’re calling out to memories
of things we’ve seen and still believe
a crescent glow
shapes the sky,
another night,
the pale moonlight
bringing us
together
the weather vane
is standing still
though storms may gather in the hills
another trial we’ll surely face.
that other place we’ve never been
lies waiting
please remember
that it’s what we need
to live this life
complete with dreams
beyond the meadows by the sea
past the boulders in the road
we’re seeking stories still untold
mysteries yet to break the mold
all i see is eternity
reflected in your clear blue eyes
while life is not a game
we play it anyway.
