Can't afford to lose my way
Life's too short for me to delay
I can't rest, the road is long
It's rough and it's winding and it's rolling on
Sitting in the dirt with a hole in my shirt
And the road keeps rolling on
Sadness in the night and the fear in the light
And the road keeps rolling on
I gotta know which way to go
I gotta know, I gotta know
Can't afford to lose my way
Life's too short for me to delay
Though the days have come and gone
The road keeps rolling on
Sitting in the car but I've not travelled far
And the road keeps rolling on
I go faster than my fear but I haven't moved from here
And the road keeps rolling on
I need to know which way to go
I need to know, I need to know
Can't afford to lose my way
Life's too short for me to delay
Though the days have come and gone
The road keeps rolling on
I'm sitting in my home but still I'm alone
And the road keeps rolling on
Not sure what I gain, perhaps shelter from the rain
And the road keeps rolling on
I need to know which way to go
I gotta know, I gotta know
Can't afford to lose my way
Life's too short for me to delay
Though the days have come and gone
The road keeps rolling on
