We left one night
Never to return
For the glowing light
Out past the burn
It was all so right
It was never wrong
When we left the light for an evil turn

Time is a ladder
Up to the shine
Every step we take
Leads to another why
And hope is the only thing
That keeps us alive
While we reach for the gold
Long is the road

There are days I know
When the fires glow
Seems to dim in the dark of the night
And the way seems lost
When you question the cost
But somehow you keep reaching for the light

Time is a ladder
Up to the shine
Every step we take
Leads to another why
And hope is the only thing
That keeps us alive
While we reach for the gold

On and on we sing the song
We don't know the reason for it all
On and on we sing the song
Till we don't see the light no more

Did you find a place

That you thought was safe
From it all
Somewhere after the light
But only to find
You were wrong
Long is the road

On and on we sing the song
We don't know the reason for it all
On and on we sing the song
Till we don't see the light no more

On and on we sing the song
We don't know the reason for it all
On and on we sing the song
Till we don't see the light no more

Long is the road
I know
Long is the road
Long is the road
I know
Long is the road
