Lyrics
You say you're not afraid behind your walls of pride
You claim to be fearless within the walls of your pride.
They keep the world away but something's trapped inside
Despite the protective walls, something is confined within.
I'll go any way the wind blows
Willing to follow any direction the wind takes.
And you know the storm comes and the river will run
Acknowledges that storms will come, and challenges will arise.
You better hold on to the moment
Emphasizes the importance of cherishing the present moment.
Cause it may never come again
Urges holding onto fleeting moments, as they may not recur.
CHORUS:
< strong > CHORUS:
Long time gone
Expresses the passage of a significant amount of time.
Where do we go from here
Ponders the direction or path to take in the present situation.
Long time gone away..
Reflects on the considerable time that has passed.
The voice of reason begs the fighting takes its toll
Reason advises against prolonged conflict and its toll.
You're bangin' big square pegs into little round holes
Describes a futile effort, trying to fit incompatible elements together.
But I'll go anyplace your heart goes and you know
Expresses willingness to go wherever the heart leads.
The music plays and the heart obeys
Recognizes the influence of music on emotions and decisions.
You gotta keep this thing together
Encourages maintaining unity despite uncertainties.
But you don't know the why or how
Acknowledges a lack of understanding regarding the reasons and methods.
It's getting hard to find forever
Expresses difficulty in finding lasting stability.
In the state of here and now
Highlights the challenge of securing a lasting commitment in the present moment.
