Further Down The Road
Journey of Resilience: Embracing Life's Twists with Charlie Landsborough
Lyrics
I do not count what I've lost, what I'm losing
I don't dwell on what I've lost or am losing.
I'm a traveller with no fixed abode
I am a wanderer without a permanent home.
All of the gifts yesterday spent refusing
I've rejected gifts from the past; there might be better things ahead.
May well be waiting further down the road
Possibilities and opportunities may await in the future.
-------
(Instrumental break or pause)
I tried to take every chance I was given
I tried to seize every opportunity, but luck hasn't favored me.
But if luck's a lady she never showed
Luck, personified as a lady, has not been on my side.
There's more to life than just making a living
Life is more than just earning a living.
My life is waiting further down the road
My life's true meaning awaits in the future.

(Instrumental break or pause)
CHORUS:
< strong > CHORUS:
Further down the road
Optimism about a better future.
I can see the light
Visualizing a positive outcome further ahead.
Further down the road
Anticipating that everything will be fine in the future.
Everything 'll be all right
Expressing hope and positivity about the future.
Further down the road
Belief in eventual freedom.
I will be free
Looking forward to liberation or release.
Further down the road
Future prospects include the idea of reaching heaven.
Heaven waits for me
Hope for a heavenly reward in the future.
-------
(Instrumental break or pause)
All of the years chasing smoke-rings and rumour
Years spent pursuing unattainable goals and rumors.
Looking for seed that had never been sown
Searching for something that doesn't exist.
Old Father Time has a strange sense of humour
Time has a peculiar way of amusing us; laughter awaits in the future.
He'll hear me laughing further down the road
Future joy is anticipated, despite past struggles.
-------
(Instrumental break or pause)
REPEAT CHORUS:
< strong > REPEAT CHORUS:
No looking back
No dwelling on the past; I'm moving forward.
I'm moving on
Embracing change and progression.
I'm having no regrets
No regrets for the past; it's time to let go.
What's gone is gone
Past is unchangeable; acceptance of what's gone.
-------
(Instrumental break or pause)
