The Long Road Lyrics - Young As The Morning Old As The Sea - Passenger

We've walked the long road and you've worn it well 

You stitched yourself up when you fell 

Keep your memories in jars, 

Carry secrets in scars 

Beneath your shell. 

You've seen some good days, and some bad ones too 

You weave through fashion and trend 

You've seen a sun rise on an ocean blue, 

You've seen it set for the dearest of friends 

You found faith but you, chose to doubt it 

You found love but you, left without it 

And now you don't want, to talk about it

You travelled down through foreign lands, 

Touched mountain tops and golden sand, 

Seen pyramids and temples made of stone 

Keep seashells in a cashmere scarf, 

A treasured book of photographs 

In every single one you stand alone 

You've seen Vienna and the Berlin wall, 

As you watched the decades fall 

The letters that you wrote never made it home. 

Your birthdays flew past like June, 

With Christmas days in hotel rooms 

And new years eve with people you don't know 

You built friendships but they, sailed without you 

You never meant it and that's why, they doubt you 

They don't ever talk about you 

Photos 

You're older than you used to be, 

The mirror weaves a tapestry 

Of lines that dance and shimmer 'round your eyes 

You stare back at a man, forever holding out his hand 

As if the answer's going to fall out of the sky 

But the penny never dropped, 

And no man has ever stopped time from flying by
