Many Roads Lyrics - Counting Stars - Andrew Peterson

If you'll step inside this great glass elevator 

It'll take us up above the city lights 

To where the planet curves away to the equator 

I want to show you something fine 

You can see the roads that we all traveled just to get here 

A million minuscule decisions in a line 

Why they brought us to this moment isn't clear 

But that's all right, we've got all night 

Could it be that the many roads 

You took to get here 

Were just for me to tell this story 

And for you to hear this song 

And your many hopes 

And your many fears 

Were meant to bring you here all along

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

So if you'll trust me with your time I'll spend it wisely 

I will sing to you with all I have to give 

If you traveled all this way, then I will do my best to play 

My biggest hits (that don't exist) 

And if you'll lend to me your ear I'll sing 'em pretty 

I will never, ever sing 'em out of tune 

And I will not forget the words, 

Of any chorus, bridge, or verse 

I promise you 

CHORUS 

We've got Benjamin to play the grand piano 

If we're lucky it's a little out of tune 

We've got Andy on the guitar 'cause I promised him 

Some Texas barbecue 

How I love to watch you listen to the music 

'Cause you sing to me a music of your own 

As I cast out all these lines, so afraid that I will find 

I am alone, all alone

Could it be that the many roads 

I took to get here 

Were just for you to tell that story 

And for me to hear that song 

And my many hopes 

And my many fears 

Were meant to bring me here all along 

We were meant to be right here all along
