There is a road

There is a road, a famous road...

There is a road, a famous road,
long and wide out in the sun;
and this road, this great white road
is full of life and often fun.

And there's a road, an endless road,
dark and grim beneath the clouds;
and this road, this narrow road
leads to despair and many doubts.

But did you know
         there is a road,
                   a cobbled road
that winds among the trees?

This road, they say,
         is not the way;
It leads us far
         and oft astray.

But on this road, this lonely road,
a traveller will come one day;
and when he comes upon that road
the light and shadows play.
