LONG  ROAD  (cowriter: Bill Yule)

Looking into your eyes, I see the light from above shining through
                 ... oh yes I really do ...
'Cause underneath all our disguises we are angels of love
Caught in the ruins of what used to be heaven
But we were given feet to walk down the road
And we were given dreams to lighten the load
And we were given arms so we could hold each other

'Cause it's a long, long road
But we'll travel it hand in hand
Yes it's a long, long road
But you and I know the lay of the land
And we're not in a hurry, no, no
We can always stop and rest along the way
And we'll love and forgive every day

Walking twenty miles a day for twenty years long and we'll still have 
                  ... miles to go ...
Don't you know the horizon is further than it appears and there's 
Bound to be some tears but I'll dry yours if you'll dry mine 
We'll drink the wine of passion
From a single broken cup ... and let the spirits warm our tired souls
And we'll pretend that our love will never end 
And be grateful for a friendly hand to hold

'Cause it's a long, long road
But we'll travel it hand in hand
Yes it's a long, long road
But you and I know the lay of the land
And we're not in a hurry, no, no
We can always stop and rest along the way
And we'll love and forgive every day

And you say, "What about tomorrow?"
And I say, "Take a look at today
I have stayed with you in hard times and I intend to stay
Until the end of the road I will be there by your side
And together we'll decide whether to stop or travel on"

'Cause it's a long, long road
But we'll travel it hand in hand
Yes it's a long, long road
But you and I know the lay of the land
And we're not in a hurry, no, no
We can always stop and rest along the way
And we'll love and forgive every day
