O see ye not yon narrow road That's a' beset wi' thorn and briar? That is the path of righteousness And few there be that there aspire And see ye not yon wide smooth road That winds across the lily leaven? That is the path of wickedness Though many ca' it the road to heaven And see ye not yon bonny, bonny road That winds across the ferny brae? That is the path to fair elfland There you and i this night maun gae Summerland (words and music by arthur hinds) They say the road to heaven is straight and narrow They say the road to hell is smooth and wide Well, the path i follow is long and winding But it surely leads to the other side I've walked the maze of shadow and the the paths of light And i've seen myself in rebel gray and celtic woad I'll trace the sacred spiral of the mysteries' flight Till the final turning of the road Summerland, the wheel is spinning Womb of change and rebeginning From one to the many and from the many to the one Well of rest and deep reflection Seeing truth and new direction Till summerland is done Summerland I'm forced to admit i'm far from a perfect man And i guess i confess i'm a sinner as they'd say But the pagan life's not about single-dose redemption It's a reaffirmation every day And they'll ask you, "brother, have you been saved? "don't you worry 'bout burning for eternity?" Well, i'm in no danger; and, no, i'm not afraid For the goddess speaks with certainty They say the road to heaven is straight and narrow They say the road to hell is smooth and wide Well, the path i follow is long and winding But it surely leads to the other side
