Verse 1:
I’ve been travelling for many years never lookin’ round
Each place tells a different tale but none make a sound
Life created out of thin air full of dark and despair
I knew the truth was near but I never saw nothing there

Pre-Chorus:
And then I saw my guiding light
I couldn’t be sure but something felt right

Chorus:
So take my hand and come along
And join me in my simple song
Sittin’ by my side as we softly ride
I know it’s hard but I need to try
It’s a long long way to discovering
The road that leads to me

Verse 2:
Turned tail on a thing or two caught running scared
Prayin’ for a sign of resolution something I could share
See the man in reflections I saw the boy inside
Hatin’ what was there and wishing that I would die

Pre-Chorus:
But then life came crashing down loneliness was all around
I built myself back up and put me back solid ground

Chorus:
So take my hand and come along
And join me in my simple song
Sittin’ by my side as we softly ride
I know it’s hard but I need to try
It’s a long long way to discovering
The road that leads to me

Bridge:
You changed my destiny
You ended misery
I reached out to the skies above and your love and spirit set me free

Outro Chorus:
So take my hand and come along
And join me in my simple song
Sittin’ by my side as we softly ride
I know it’s hard but I need to try
It’s a long long way to discovering
A long long way to discovering
It’s a long long way to discovering
The road that leads to me
