Lyrics
There are so many roads in this world
Expressing the abundance of life's paths.
That I wish all led back to you
Desire for all paths to lead back to a specific person.
And I know
Acknowledging the unrealistic nature of the wish.
That's unreasonable
Acknowledging the unreasonableness of the desire.
But I'm hoping that's only for today
Hopeful that the unreasonableness is temporary.
And I've traveled down these pavements
Searching the paths for a connection to the person.
Looking for your drive
Specifically looking for signs of the person's presence.
Because I love you
Expressing love for the person.
I love who you are
Affirming love for the person's true self.
And I'd travel for however far
Willingness to travel any distance for the person.
And I need you
Expressing a need for the person's presence.
In front of my face
Desire for the person to be physically close.
Cause we promised
Referencing a promise made between the two.
For the rest of our days
Commitment to staying together forever.
I'll keep traveling
Commitment to continuous exploration or journey.
Yes, I'll keep traveling on
Reiteration of the commitment to keep traveling.
It's colder in this bed without you
Expressing the emotional impact of separation.
And my smile doesn't last as long
Acknowledging a decrease in happiness without the person.
And I know you'll be back so soon
Belief in the person's imminent return.
But until then I'll keep wandering for you
Willingness to continue searching or waiting.
Because I love you
Reiteration of love for the person.
I love who you are
Affirmation of love for the person's true self.
And I'd travel for however far
Continued willingness to travel any distance.
And I need you
Expressing the need for the person's presence.
In front of my face
Desire for the person to be physically close.
Cause we promised
Referencing a promise made between the two.
For the rest of our days
Commitment to staying together forever.
Yes, I'll keep traveling
Reiteration of the commitment to keep traveling.
Yes, I'll keep traveling
Repetition of the commitment to keep traveling.
Yes, I'll keep traveling on
Reiteration of the commitment to keep traveling.
Oh I'll keep traveling on
Continued determination to keep traveling.
There's so much of you that I crave when you're gone
Expressing a deep longing for the person when absent.
Like a ghost in the night, not satisfied 'til dawn
Comparing the absence to a ghostly experience.
No matter the minutes or miles, the road goes on
Acknowledging the continuous nature of the journey.
Yesterday's close, tomorrow it seems so long
Reflecting on the perceived distance between past and future.
Because I love you
Reaffirmation of love for the person.
I love who you are
Affirmation of love for the person's true self.
And I'd travel for however far
Continued willingness to travel any distance.
And I need you
Expressing the need for the person's presence.
In front of my face
Desire for the person to be physically close.
Cause we promised
Referencing a promise made between the two.
For the rest of our days
Commitment to staying together forever.
I'll keep traveling
Reiteration of the commitment to keep traveling.
Oh I'll keep traveling on
Continued determination to keep traveling.
Oh I'll keep traveling on
-Oh I'll keep traveling on
