Roadsinger came to town, long cape and hat, |
|
people stood and stared then closed their doors, as he passed, |
|
he strolled the empty street, kids banged on tin cans, |
|
then the panting dogs began to bark, as the Roadsinger sang |
|
Where do you go, where do you go, |
|
when hearts are closed, |
|
when a friend becomes a stranger, |
|
nobody wants to know |
|
Where do you go, where do you go, |
|
when the world turns dark, |
|
and the light of truth is blown out, |
|
and the roads are blocked |
|
He stopped by a stall, between the barrels and sacks, |
|
a child's face peeped out and gave a smile, and ran back, |
|
behind a misty glass, on a windowpane, |
|
a little finger drew a perfect heart, and a name |
|
Where do you go, where do you go, |
|
in a world filled with fright, |
|
only a song to warm you, through the night |
|
Where do you go, where do you go, |
|
after lies are told, |
|
and the light of truth is blown out, |
|
and the night is cold |
|
Roadsinger rode on, to another land, |
|
though the people spoke a different tongue, it understand, |
|
they showed him how to share, and took him by the hand, |
|
showed him the path to Heaven, through the desert sand |
|
Where do you go, where do you go, |
|
to find happiness, |
|
in a world filled with hatred, (Cheers) |
|
where do you go, where do you go, |
|
if no one cares, |
|
and everybody's lost, looking for theirs |
