The Old Walking Song, the Road... Lyrics
The Road goes ever on and on
Out from the door of where it began
And now far ahead the Road has gone
Let others follow it who can
The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began
Now far ahead the Road has gone
And I must follow, if I can!
Pursuing it with eager feet
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet
And whither then? I cannot say
The Road goes ever on and on
Out from the door of where it began
And now far ahead the Road has gone
Let others follow it who can!
And let them a journey new begin
But I at last with weary feet
Will turn towards the lighted inn
Evening-rest and sleep to meet
The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began
Now far ahead the Road has gone
And I must follow, if I can!
Pursuing it with eager feet
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet
And whither then? I cannot say
Is it a new Road or a secret gate?
The day will come at last for me
When I shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon and East of the Sun
The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began
Now far ahead the Road has gone
And I must follow, if I can!
Pursuing it with eager feet
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet
And whither then? I cannot say
The Road goes ever on and on
Out from the door of where it began
And now far ahead the Road has gone
Let others follow it who can
And let them a journey new begin
But I at last with weary feet
Will turn towards the lighted inn
Evening-rest and sleep to meet
Is it a new Road or a secret gate?
The day will come at last for me
When I shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon and East of the Sun
