Walkin' That Road

We were drivin’ fast straight into the sun
We never noticed the approaching rain
Now everything that was once familiar
Feels so strange

Tossed off of the superhighway
Onto a long and dusty road
Without a map or a star to guide us
Back to our home

So this is where we’ll have to start
With tired eyes and broken hearts
But at least we’re pointed in the same direction

And we’ll be walkin’ that road one step at a time
Mile after lonely mile
Until we find a place that’s all our own
We’ll be walkin’ that road

People stare as we walk on past them
Talk politely as they throw their stones
Point out our imperfections
So they can hide their own

But we have travelled much too far
To let them hold us back
There’s a price to pay for slowing down to listen

CHORUS

After all that we have learned from being so far down
Though we may tire, complain, or stumble
We will never turn ourselves around
