Verse 1 I saw a boy down by the river Skippin' stones against the tide Got his whole life in tomorrow And a thousand questions in his eyes He looked at me and said, "Mister Do things turn out like you planned?" I smiled and kicked the dust around me Said, "Son, that's not how life began" Chorus Walk with me, down these roads you'll someday know Past the tears and through the gold Every mile will leave a mark upon your soul Walk with me, don't be afraid of what's unseen The world is wider than your dreams And though the wind will bend the trees You'll stand just fine Live free, don't hurry time Life has a way of drawing lines And someday you'll understand So just walk with me Verse 2 You're gonna lose some people dearly You're gonna watch some seasons fade You'll have nights you curse the darkness And mornings grateful that you stayed You'll chase a few wrong destinations Break your heart a time or two But every scar becomes a chapter In a story that is true Chorus Walk with me, down these roads you'll someday know Past the tears and through the gold Every mile will leave a mark upon your soul Walk with me, don't be afraid of what's unseen The world is wider than your dreams And though the wind will bend the trees You'll stand just fine Live free, don't hurry time Life has a way of drawing lines And someday you'll understand So just walk with me Bridge I won't tell you every heartbeat I won't spoil each twist and turn Some lessons only come from living Some fires you must feel to learn But if there's one thing worth remembering When the clouds refuse to move The things that nearly broke your spirit Will someday become your proof Final Chorus Walk with me, through the pages yet unwritten Through the losses and the living Through the days that make you question where you are Walk with me, through the laughter and the leaving Through the reasons and believing Every road has led us exactly where we are Live free, don't fear the rain Don't waste your days on what might change If I could do it all again I'd leave it all the same 'Cause we lived a life worth telling A life worth singing A life worth passing on Outro So take your time, my friend Don't worry what's ahead There are miles still left to see So just walk with me
