[Verse 1]
Along the way to nowhere
A place I always go
I stopped before a looking glass
To see if it would show
To see if all the nowhereness
Had somehow left its trace
I stopped before a looking glass
But someone stole my face
[Chorus]
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
[Verse 2]
Along the way to finding love
I stopped to sing a song
And just before the second verse
My love had come and gone
It went so fast, I never knew
That nothing took its place
I stopped before a looking glass
But fear had stole my face
[Chorus]
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
[Verse 3]
Along the way to growing old
I turned just once to see
What all the fuss had been about
And what I'd never be
I saw the lives that crossed with mine
Still running out the race
I stopped before a looking glass
But anger stole my face
[Chorus]
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
[Bridge]
My face was gone, I don't know where
I don't think that I care
And if I hadn't stopped to look
I'd think it still was there
[Chorus]
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
Along the way
