It's the same long road that we travel

The same rewards that we seek

As the puzzle slowly unravels

What our pain tries to reveal

Too many hearts have died in sorrow

With bitter tears locked deep inside

So don't be slaves to your own egos

And don't be prisoners of your pride

If you think this road is getting longer

Just count the footsteps we left behind

If the love keeps getting stronger

The load gets lighter with every mile

So guard your dreams guard them close now

But don't let them be your God

'Cause you may still be here tomorrow

Even if your visions let you down

If you think this road is getting longer

Just count the footsteps we left behind

If the love keeps getting stronger

The load gets lighter with every mile

Too many hearts have died in sorrow

With bitter tears locked deep inside

So don't be slaves to your own egos

And don't be prisoners of your pride
