# The Road Ahead I look into the mirror And see the road behind The places that I came from Are fading from my mind A house beneath the evening A face I used to know The years keep moving onward And never let us go And all these roads we're taking Are roads we cannot stay We hold on to the moments Then watch them fade away So I will keep on driving Wherever I may go With the ones I love beside me And the memories I know The home that raised my childhood Grows smaller every day The windows lose their colour The distance takes it away I see my father's eyes there In everything I knew The wonder of a young boy The man he once grew into And all these roads we're taking Are roads we cannot stay We hold on to the moments Then watch them fade away So I will keep on driving Wherever I may go With the ones I love beside me And the memories I know The past is in the mirror The future waits ahead The present is a heartbeat Between the living and the dead And maybe we are travellers Just passing through the years Leaving little pieces Of laughter, love and tears So I will keep on driving Though I don't know where I'll carry every memory I'll carry every prayer The road becomes my story The miles become my thread I'll follow where it takes me Until I rest my head I look into the mirror One last time before I go The road behind is fading But the love will always show
