the road’s rolling out

in front of me again

showing me the exit

 

say something quick

and make it stick

I’ll soon be gone

 

I’ll set a candle at my back

to light the path I’ve traveled

I’ll burn my skin with the heat of it

with still no movement ahead

I set my sight upon the distance

 

look now into my eyes

like you’d once done

smile and bring the tears

before I’m gone

 

show me the fragile spring flower we’ve sown

once more before the wings of love have flown
