the long road

well i've walked alone, i've walked down this long road, some walk alongside for awhile and then go, i think back on them as the days go by, the roads we took were different in this life, we once drank from the wine of youth, then it was gone, and when a woman takes your heart, the only thing left is a song, there are plenty of the bad times that i've had, seemed to last so long while the good ones when so fast, but the best times i remember them most of all, they'll stay with me forever, there are some friends who've walked along with me, they'll be there till the end of the road, but in the middle of the night, when you're alone with the pain-, sometimes it's not enough and you're on your own, some of these moments, there's just one thing that saved my life, and as the sweet muse sent the music, i held on to my guitar all night, i've seen the morning break in tokyo, the winter stars above the wyoming snow, everything in between, well it's been a long ride, wouldn't trade anything under the sky
