Do you mean "Bless the Broken Road"? If so, the lyrics appear to be available at many lyrics sites; just search those words.

If you meant some other song, please give us more details so we can track it down.

BLESS THE ROAD
Songwriter: Steve Cooney

Remember when we walked on hills of heather
Singing weaving mystical rings
Now in a while my precious child
You will unfurl your wings
And I'll have lost what I believed
Had promised everything
But before you go my friend, my kind companion
Listen to this song I sing

Then go in peace and grow in grace and goodness
Know that you have nothing to fear
And dry your eyes my little one
And let there be no tears
Send me a dream from away beyond
I promise I shall hear
Oh beautiful beloved soul companion
Thank you for those beautiful years

And heaven hold and watch your way forever
May your every dream com true
Forgive all wrong, always be strong
And do what you must do
You stand before this open door
And you must now go through
My precious friend, my own my sweet companion
Bless the road that carries you
My precious friend, my own my sweet companion
Bless the road that carries you




The lyrics are from the site Open Mike posted above.

Hi, Blue -
Mary Black's Website is http://www.mary-black.net. You'll find she has lyrics for a huge number of songs she's recording. She doesn't always get the songs down accurately and her spelling leaves something to be desired, but she does have a lot of songs on her Website. Here is the song, with spelling uncorrected.

Lyrics:
Remember when we walked on hills of heather
Singing weaving mystical rings
Now in a while my precious child
You wil unfurl your wings
And I'll have lost what I believed
Had promised everything
But before you go my friend, my kind companion
Listen to this song I sing

Then go in peace and grow in grace and goodness
Know that you have nothing to fear
And dry your eyes my little one
And let there be no tears
Send me a dream from away beyond
I promise I shall hear
Oh beautifull beloved soul companion
Thank you for those beautiful years

And heaven hold and watch your way forever
May your every dream com true
Forgive all wrong, always be strong
And do what you must do
You stand before this open door
And you must now go through
My precious friend, my own my sweet companion
Bless the road that carries you
My precious friend, myu own my sweet companion
Bless the road that carries you

I am struggling to accompany this song - it's supposed to be in 3/4 time but seems to work better in 4/4 anyone else found this?
