Sometimes the road goes on forever Sometimes the road goes on in vain But we carry on through stormy weather Knowing things won't always stay the same It's a long road that has no turning It's a long road that has no bend It's a dark cloud arising Without some silver lining It's a high hill you're climbing That doesn't go back down again So keep the home fires burning Keep your shelter from the wind The world will all seem warmer When you finally turn that corner The sun will shine again If you just wait till then Sometimes the road is hard to follow They're trying times everywhere we go But we carry on towards tomorrow Could be a better day For all we know It's a long road that has no turning It's a long road that has no bend It's a dark cloud arising Without some silver lining It's a high hill you're climbing That doesn't go back down again So keep the home fires burning Keep your shelter from the wind The world will all seem warmer When you finally turn that corner The sun will shine again If you just wait till then So keep the home fires burning Keep your shelter from the wind The world will all seem warmer When you finally turn that corner The sun will shine again If you just wait till then
