Passenger- this road is long

When I was young,

I walked very fast, feeling that

the road ahead of me was long.

Now I walk a little slower.

Though the road is still long,

I like taking the time

to stop and look around.

Passenger- this road is long

Well this road is long and 

I'm so far from my home

Some days I don't recognise myself

Though my faith is strong 

there is still so far to go

Some nights I cant help but doubt myself

For I'm not the kid I used to be 

back when I was young

I talk now where I used to shout

I walk where I used to run

But I'm still my fathers boy 

I am still my mothers son

And they know like I know 

that the road is long

Well this road is long and 

the paths not always clear

Some days I don't know 

which way to go

Though my heart is strong 

it gets heavy with fear

Some nights I wonder if I'll ever know

For I'm not the man I'll grow to be 

In many years to come

I'll listen where I used to speak and 

I'll sit where I used to run

Maybe a husband to a wife 

maybe a father to a son

And they'll know like I know

That the road is long

For now I'm just the man I am

Nothing less and nothing more

I'm everything I have become

From all that's been before

I've never really known a lot

But one thing I am sure that I know

Yes I know

That the road is long
