What lies on the open road? <br />Ahead to my unknown future; <br />Everything's not easily followed, <br />Life can be an aimless moocher. <br />The days to dreaming will go <br />Departing from their reality <br />Like footsteps in the fallen snow <br />That one from the past will see <br /> <br />What lies there for you and me? <br />The dreams we can not hold <br />Coming within from nowhere free <br />Stories to our futures untold <br />Flowing through day and night <br />Sights that are passing by <br />Morning hours burning bright <br />Nightly glisten starry sky <br /> <br />You and I inside all this <br />Moments and minutes carrying on <br />Each trial in the morning bliss <br />Purposes that are never done <br />The days to each our yearning <br />Dices that throw each cast <br />Our flowers in yellow burning <br />To the going and departed past <br /> <br />*Also a song at SheetMusic Publishing<br /><br />Peter S.
