Road Too Long - Allan Taylor

[00:00.01]Road Too Long - Allan Taylor
[00:14.17]It was a long time coming but plain to see
[00:21.75]When I held his shaking hand he couldn't look at me
[00:29.36]He said something about losing
[00:32.65]losing the will to go on
[00:36.81]He looked off into the distance
[00:40.35]I knew his mind had gone
[00:48.33]He lights a candle
[00:51.69]it has a soft kind of glow
[00:55.62]He's scared of the dark
[00:58.89]but he won't let nobody know
[01:02.57]Cos when the midnight demons
[01:06.9]are creeping through the night
[01:10.44]He knows they'll get to him
[01:13.9]when he's run out of fight
[01:22.229996]Was it trying to get it right that made it wrong
[01:29.79]Or was it just a road that went on way too long
[01:36.83]Too long
[01:40.509995]too long
[01:44.259995]too long
[01:51.68]He searches for words
[01:55.14]but the words disappear
[01:59.08]He talks so quietly you move closer to hear
[02:06.64]He's looking for answers
[02:09.92]but you don't know what to say
[02:14.08]Just help him through the night into another day
[02:44.25]He's falling over the edge of the abyss
[02:51.49]Holding on and reaching out
[02:55.06]and hoping he won't miss
[02:58.87]I say Grab a hold of something
[03:02.73]something beautiful and true
[03:06.43]Someday the world is going to smile for you
[03:18.54001]Was it trying to get it right that made it wrong
[03:26.17]Or was it just a road that went on way too long
[03:33.5]Too long
[03:37.38]too long
[03:41.13]too long
