Stay the Road Lyrics

Tired, tired eyes look up and see
All you've done, the path you've come
The things that you've achieved
And when you're doubting
I hope you'll trust in me
Tired, tired eyes look up and seeI've been mining down a dark hole
I've been mining in the rocks
For a golden seam she's got buried deep
Some where inside of her
I've been working for your wonder
I've been mining hard and long
And I will not fold; I'm gonna find that gold
Now my work has just begunCome on, pilgrim, won't you stay the road
Put that distance from your mind
Don't you let it show
Well, it's just a ride, and I'm at your side
If you didn't know
Come on, pilgrim, won't you stay the roadI've been mining down a dark hole

I've been mining in the rocks
For a heart of gold that can't be bought or sold
She's got there inside of her
I've been working for your wonder
I've been mining hard and long
And I won't give up; I'm gonna fill my cup
Now my work has just begunShelter, shelter bell ring out for all below
Keep your doorway open wide
Give us somewhere to go
And when we're full of doubt
And we don't know what about
Don't you tell us no
Shelter, shelter bell ring out for all belowI've been mining down a dark hole
I've been mining in the rocks
For a heart of gold that can't be bought or sold
She's got there inside of her
I've been working for your wonder
I've been mining hard and long
And I won't give up, I'm gonna fill my cup
Now my work has just begunTired, tired eyes look up and see
All you've done, the path you've come
The things that you've achieved
And when you're doubting
I hope you'll trust in me
Tired, tired eyes look up and see
