Merrily We Roll Along

Yesterday is done
See the pretty countryside
Merrily we roll along, roll along
Bursting with dreams

Traveling's the fun
Flashing by the countryside
Everybody merrily
Merrily
Catching at dreams
Rolling along
Rolling along
Rolling along

Dreams don't die
So keep an eye on your dreams
And before you know where you are
There you are

Time goes by
And hopes go dry
But you still can try for your dreams

Tend your dream (how does it happen?)
Dreams take time (once it was all so clear)
Time goes by (how can you get so far off the track?)
(Why don't you turn around and go back?)
Bend your dream (how does it happen?)
(Where is the moment?)
With the road (how can you miss it?)
(Isn't it clear?)
How can you let it slip out of gear?
How did you ever get there from here?

(You roll) how does it happen?
(You just roll) once it was all so clear
(Everybody rolls) how does it start to go?
Does it slip away slow?
So you never even notice it's happening

How did you get to be here?
What was the moment?
How did you get to be here?

Pick yourself a road
Get to know the countryside
Soon enough you're merrily, merrily
Practicing dreams
Dreams that will explode
Waking up the countryside
Making you feel merrily, merrily
What can go wrong?

(Rolling along) some roads are soft
And some are bumpy
Some roads you really fly
Some rides are off and leave you jumpy
Why make it tough by getting grumpy?
Plenty of roads to try

Some roads are soft (one trip)
And some are bumpy (all you get is)
Some roads you really fly (one quick ride)
(Look around a bit)
Some rides are off and leave you jumpy (one quick ride)
Why make it tough by getting grumpy? (Through the countryside)
(Stay on the track)
Plenty of roads to try
(Never look back)
Some roads you really fly

Never look back
Never look back
Never look back
Never look back
Never look-
How did you get to be here?
What was the moment?
How did you get to be here?

Bending with the road
Flying through the countryside
Merrily we roll along, roll along
Catching at dreams
Dreams that will explode
Waking up the countryside
Everybody merrily, merrily
Sing 'em your song

Rolling along!
Rolling along!
Rolling along!
Rolling a-
