There Is a Path

There's a path that stretches before us
And it's as fragile as it is long
And the line that the path follows
Is not a straight forward one
It dips and it wiggles
Sometimes it climbs
Far too close to the sun

But I - I keep that path under my feet
Cause I know it's the only one

And we had strayed from that path so often
But they're now just distant stains
There's guys in this town
That have fallen down
And never found their feet again
They made their woman cry
Once too many times
She's keepin' some other fellow on tonight

But I - I keep that path under my feet
I keep my eyes on that line

And when old friends come calling
I may hang around for a while
It's not a question of falling
They're just important people in my life
They get that look in their eye
That says, "Let's go too far"
I know it's time to find my car
And get back to my baby's arms
And keep my eyes on that line

Yeah I - I keep that path under my feet
I keep my eyes on that line

(Bridge)
There's a path that stretches before us
And it's as fragile as it is long
And the line that the path follows
Is not a straight forward one
It dips and it wiggles
Sometimes it climbs
Far too close to the sun

But I - I keep that path under my feet
Cause I know it's the only one

Yeah I - I keep that path under my feet
Cause I know it's the only one

Yeah I - I keep that path under my feet
Cause I know it's the only one
