Just like the sun over the mountaintop You know I'll always come again You know I love to spend my morningtime Like sunlight dancing on your skin I've never gone so wrong As for telling lies to you What you see is what I've been There is nothing I could hide from you You see me better than I can Out on the road that lies before me now There are some turns where I will spin I only hope that you can hold me now 'Til I can gain control again And like a lighthouse You must stand alone Landmark the sailor's journey's end No matter what sea I've been sailing on I'll always pass this way again Out on the road that lies before me now There are some turns where I will spin I only hope that you can hold me now Til I can gain control again
