Safe and Sound
I'm counting the hours, counting the days
Counting the years that we've been gone
Here, out on the edge, lost in the dark
Waiting to rise and greet the dawn
Doesn't always stand to reason
Maybe it's a game we'll never win
Doesn't mean we're out of season
Maybe it's a matter of hanging in
Still I wonder why
As the years roll by
The passion fades and I wonder why
That you're asking me to justify and stay
Stay the course,
Hold the road we're on
And keep to the path
To the road that you know
Lead you on
To the day
When you can see the rest of the way
And you'll be safe and sound
You don't understand, don't want to try
Don't even see how far we've come
We had to be sure, right from the start
We made a choice and now it's done
Doesn't always stand to reason
Maybe it's a game we'll never win
Doesn't mean we're out of season
Maybe it's a matter of hanging in
Still I wonder why
As the years roll by
The vision fades and I wonder why
Now you're asking me to justify and stay
Stay the course
Hold the road we're on
And keep to the path
To the road that you know
Lead you on
To the day
When you can see the rest of the way
And you'll be safe and sound
I turn to the left, the path that leads down
The signs have all faded and decayed
I cannot believe that this is the way
I cannot pretend we're nearer the day
I turn to the right, the path that leads high
It leads up to nothing, not even the sky
I cannot believe, that this way is true
And so we maintain our direction now
Stay the course
Hold the road
Stay the course
Safe and sound
Counting the years that we've been gone
Here, out on the edge, lost in the dark
Waiting to rise and greet the dawn
Doesn't always stand to reason
Maybe it's a game we'll never win
Doesn't mean we're out of season
Maybe it's a matter of hanging in
Still I wonder why
As the years roll by
The passion fades and I wonder why
That you're asking me to justify and stay
Stay the course,
Hold the road we're on
And keep to the path
To the road that you know
Lead you on
To the day
When you can see the rest of the way
And you'll be safe and sound
You don't understand, don't want to try
Don't even see how far we've come
We had to be sure, right from the start
We made a choice and now it's done
Doesn't always stand to reason
Maybe it's a game we'll never win
Doesn't mean we're out of season
Maybe it's a matter of hanging in
Still I wonder why
As the years roll by
The vision fades and I wonder why
Now you're asking me to justify and stay
Stay the course
Hold the road we're on
And keep to the path
To the road that you know
Lead you on
To the day
When you can see the rest of the way
And you'll be safe and sound
I turn to the left, the path that leads down
The signs have all faded and decayed
I cannot believe that this is the way
I cannot pretend we're nearer the day
I turn to the right, the path that leads high
It leads up to nothing, not even the sky
I cannot believe, that this way is true
And so we maintain our direction now
Stay the course
Hold the road
Stay the course
Safe and sound
