The Road

This life goes by so damn fast
It feels just like a blur
Of the places we just drove on past
And the people that we were
I set cruise control on my soul for way too long
But like the pavement paves the road with strength
Our love it just stayed strong

And I look back on all the choices that I made
With so many exits off this highway

When the weight of the world can be a heavy load
I'll stay with you, here on the road
I'll stay with you, here on the road

Now I've had a little and I've had a lot
Sometimes deserved the things I got
I fought like a fool for what I thought was gold
Told myself how it was gonna be
But most times you can't change a thing
So we promised to wear each other's ring
Until we both grow old

And now I think back on all the choices
That you made
With so many exits off this highway

When the weight of the world can be a heavy load
I'll stay with you, here on the road
I'll stay with you, here on the road

Pictures on the dashboard
Of the one's we'll leave behind
The seeds we planted on our way
Towards the finish line
So I thank you now for everything
I thank you for this life
And though we've seen some ups and downs
It's been one hell of a ride

And I think back on all the choices that we made
With so many exits off this highway

When the cold dark night can feel so all alone
I'll stay with you, here on the road
I'll stay with you, here on the road
I'll stay with you, here on the road
