A Song Of The Road

I.     Whatever the path may be, my dear,     Let us follow it far away from here,     Let us follow it back to Yester-Year,     Whatever the path may be:     Again let us dream where the land lies sunny,     And live, like the bees, on our hearts' old honey,     Away from the world that slaves for money     Come, journey the way with me. II.     However the road may roam, my dear,     Through sun or rain, through green or sere,     Let us follow it back with hearts of cheer,     However the road may roam:     Oh, while we walk it here together,     What care we for wind and weather,     When there on the hills we'll smell the heather,     And see the lights of home! III.     Whatever the path may seem, my sweet,     Let us take it now with willing feet,     And time our steps to our hearts' glad beat,     Whatever the path may seem:     Though the road be rough that we must follow,     What care we for hill or hollow,     While here in our hearts, as high as a swallow,     We bear the same loved dream! IV.     However the road may roam, my sweet,     Let it lead us far from mart and street,     Out where the hills and the heavens meet,     However the road may roam:     So, hand in hand, let us go together,     And care no more for the wind and weather,     And reach at last those hills of heather,     Where gleam the lights of home.
