The Ancient Road

Lyrics

When we came upon the ancient road There was nothing to be said For a hundred years had come and gone A thousand words been left unsaid As we journeyed on the ancient road A little silence filled the air The rustle of the summer leaves As you turned to me and stared On the ancient road You said to me There are a million ways to die The sun will burn The rain will drown But your heart will not be mine We all must leave this ancient road In our own time and our own way As your words echoed in my mind I heard the night birds start to sing
