PHILAN LIGHTFEATHER The Road Grew Longer The Road Grew Longer The Road Grew Longer

[Soft Acoustic Intro] A fire burns beyond the ridge Where the northern pine trees sway Another road behind my boots Another mile fades away I left alone with empty hands And scars I could not hide But every trail the wilds have shown Brought another soul beside [Verse 2] A wolf that should have died that winter Now walks beside my feet An orc who once stood as my foe Now shares my evening meat A frightened child A wandering heart A traveler with nowhere left to go The road kept growing longer As the family continued to grow [Chorus] The road grew longer The pack grew strong Every mile became a song Through snow and rain Through dark and flame No one walks alone again The road grew longer The fire burned bright Guiding lost souls through the night And if tomorrow calls my name We'll walk together just the same [Instrumental] Cello Mandolin Distant horn [Verse 3] The mountains know our footsteps now The forests know our scent The moon still watches overhead To witness where we've went No throne was ever waiting here No crown upon my brow Just wolves and friends beside the fire And that's enough somehow [Final Chorus] The road grew longer The pack grew strong Every mile became a song Through snow and rain Through dark and flame No one walks alone again The road grew longer The years rolled by Still the Crimson Moon rides high And when my final trail is done I'll know I never walked alone [Outro] Soft female harmony The road grew longer... The pack grew strong... Wolf howl Fade out
