The Endless Journey

THE ENDLESS JOURNEY

What's your limit

Is there a limit

Can you jump

How high do you want me to go

Can you reach the stars

Depends how far they are

How do you cure the blues

Depends how deep the scar

Is there a road you dare not travel

How could I know until I made the journey

Is there a dream you dare not dream

Only the one I can't reach

How do you know which one you can't speak

I can't until I dream them all

What do you learn from failed attempts

That the rise consists of many falls

So when do you know to call it quits

That brings me back to where it began

I never give up because success has no end

WEARY TRAVELER

On the road all day and night no end in sight

Same songs play on the radio, same ones from an hour ago

The hands on the clock go round in circles tick tock tick tock

I'm the weary traveler looking for a place to stop

The work never ends all day and night, no reprieve in sight

Same complaints creating my headaches, same ones from yesterday

The hours pass as my attitude bends tick tock tick tock

I'm the weary worker looking for a place to stop

The people around me living their lives with no end in sight

Praying for a little relief, same prayers we all need

Passing time as the years pile up tick tock tick tock

I'm the weary stranger looking for a place to stop

On the road again all day and night playing my tunes

Same songs I played to cure the blues, same songs that I always do

It makes my hours worth living tick tock tick tock

I'm the weary traveler that will never stop.
