Lyrics -
Country Roads (John Denver)
CHORUS
Country roads, take me home
To the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home
Country roads
Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue ridge mountains, shenandoah river
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Blowing like a breeze
CHORUS
All my meo'ries gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
Teardrop in my eye
CHORUS
I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home, far away
And drivin' down the road I get a feelin'
That I should have been home yesterday
Yesterday
CHORUS
CHORUS
Long Road (G. Gothard)
There’s no need to know it all
Dancing with the Autumn trees
Now’s the time for standing strong
Breathe
In the wind, there’s a comforting song
And I know that it’s time to move on
CHORUS
It’s a long road, but we’ll go together
And it’s a dark road, but what time is better?
‘Cause the music’s playing on
And we’re all singing this song
As we travel the road
We will carry on
There’s a place I used to go
Wonder with the golden leaves
Now’s the ending of all before
Dream
In the wind, there’s a comforting song
And I know that it’s time to move on
CHORUS
There’s a story I used to know
Listen how the laughter sings
Now’s a time for holding on
Brave
In the wind, there’s a comforting song
And I know that it’s time to move on
CHORUS
CHORUS
365 Days of a Paper Airplane (Yasushi Akimoto)
