Verse 1
We were strangers starting out on a journey
Never dreaming what we’d have to go through
Two different worlds on opposite sides of the ocean
But somehow every road led me to you
No one told me I was going to find you
Unexpected what you did to my heart
When I lost hope you were there to remind me
This is the start and life is a road
Even with the distance standing between us
Different countries, different skies above
Through every message and every late night talking
I still felt your love
⸻
Chorus
Life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river I wanna keep flowing
Life is a road now and forever
I will wait for you if you let me
I will wait if you stay
And when the weight on your back gets too heavy
You can put it all on me, all on me
⸻
Verse 2
You walked into my life then you walked right out
Yeah you stole my heart then you ripped it out
No it’s not your fault how it all turned out
But I’m still hurting, hurting
There’s a lot of things I gotta figure out
Like how to move on when I’m filled with doubt
I try to let you go but I don’t know how
When every road still leads to you
I hope you’re happy but I miss you Julia
Don’t hold it against me
But I’m not even close to letting you go yet
⸻
Chorus
Life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river I wanna keep flowing
Life is a road now and forever
I will wait for you if you let me
I will wait if you stay
And when the weight on your back gets too heavy
You can put it all on me, all on me
⸻
Bridge
We will fall, we will break
Yeah we all will make mistakes
Don’t be scared, it’s okay
Cause tomorrow’s another day
Let the rain wash away
All the problems of yesterday
