Road Runner Road (Larry W Jones 05/21/2017) (song #7177)

Well, you say that over the horizon
There is a new place you’ve been longing for
But I wonder if what you envision
Is that much better than your own front door

I hope you run into something of cheer
And all your dreams turn out to be a friend
But keep in mind that I will still be here
When your road runner road comes to an end

It seems that your mind is full of worry
But I haven’t heard why you cannot stay
Dear, if you were not in such a hurry
The winds of change wouldn’t blow you away

(Instrumental)

The road you will follow may disappear
Or you may lose your way around the bend
But keep in mind that I will still be here
When your road runner road comes to an end

If, down the road, you are feeling lonely
And all the dreams you have don’t go as planned
Return to the one who loves you only
For you I still esteem and understand

I hope you run into something of cheer
And all your dreams turn out to be a friend
But keep in mind that I will still be here
When your road runner road comes to an end
