The road is a lonesome place 
as we are all strangers as we walk in the night
not looking forward never looking back
the road stops for no one 
sometimes afraid to go on, as we are now
there's no turning back this time

There's a light in the distance
still too far to reach
as hearts will be broken always 
by someone you once held so close
can't you see them standing there
in front of you for the last time
the faces slowly fade, once and for all
good-bye

Tears don't need to be shed 
but as we all take to the road sometime 
what goes around comes around
if we let it happen again and again 
it will take you down every time

Too late to turn around and too late to say
what you should have said then
now you can't, the moments gone
once you walked out the door
and the road beyond whatever was there
you thought you had is now gone

Heed my words as you see others fall away
from each other tonight with a distance
between them, as the road can be a lonesome
place to be if don't let it take you down too
