Lyrics The Road - Rare Earth

The Road

When you wanna find your own road and you need an open door When you’re lookin'
for an also in a world of either or
Everywhere you turn, folks are goin' the other way
They’re tryin' to find tomorrow but they haven’t found today
And the blind can’t see the blind so you hope it’s lost your mind
It’s a long, lonely road and the sun is a heavy, heavy load
It’s a long, lonely road and it never bends, no, no and it never ends
All the answers stay a secret and yet everybody knows
They’re followin' the leader but no one’s watchin' where it goes Movin' to the
left, movin' to the right
But don’t look up and down unless you’re lookin' for a fight
People talkin' up a storm, like the wind will keep them warm
It’s a long, lonely road and the sun is a heavy, heavy load
It’s a long, lonely road and it never bends, oh-oh, it never ends
(And no one seems to want to dream the real dream) no, no
(No-no-no, oh-oh-oh, no-no-no, oh-oh-oh)
But if you wanna be a dreamer, well, first you’ve gotta have the dreams
'Cause seein' man, is believin' although it’s not the way it seems Simple isn’t
simple and easy isn’t hard, today can see tomorrow and the future drops her
guard
Until the new words find a way to the tongues of yesterday
Oh, it’s a long, lonely road and the sun is a heavy, heavy load
It’s a long, lonely road and it never bends, oh, no, and it never ends
(And no one seems to want to dream the real dream) oh, oh
(No-no-no, oh-oh-oh) oh, no, no, no, no
(No-no-no, oh-oh-oh) the blind can’t see the blind
(No-no-no, oh-oh-oh)
(No-no-no, oh-oh-oh) such a long, long, lonely road
(No-no-no, oh-oh-oh) lookin' for an answer
