Down that long road I came
Where old ideas move
Like moonlight in the rain
I lost the one
And it felt so strange
With that chain of anger
Around my neck and that
Ball of time, rolling out of reach
And that song of life
Singing right through me
And my past that ain't quite
What it used to be
Down that road I came
I saw the kid and he ran so fast
Moving moonlight covering his tracks
I let him go and he broke my heart
And down that road I came with that
Ball of time, rolling out of reach
And that song of life
Singing right through me
With my past that ain't quite
What it used to be
Down that road I came
I met the girl and we got lost
Moving moonlight right through my thoughts
She taught me how to say goodbye
And down that road I came with that
Ball of time, rolling out of reach
And that song of life
Singing right through me
And my past that ain't quite
What it used to be
Down that road I came
Came to the place where in come the ships
Moving moonlight on the waters edge
I drank the wine and I learned the songs
And down that road I came with that
Ball of time, rolling out of reach
And that song of life
Singing right through me
With my past that ain't quite
What it used to be
Down that road I came
