The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
To the road I did take Trembling as the ground shakes Under my feet cracked in a stone heal Never ending motion Way across the ocean Into your devotion Long have I gone so far from my home What to do with this love that I'm in I have given you all of my soul Flying all my life like a rose in the wind Tell me why I'm always alone On my way back home [Indonesian spoken] Dreaming always begins Find a door that's opening Something there is shining The light in your eyes when you were all mine All alone as I wake Moving to a new place Shivering as I trace A road of my own cut by a deep cold (Repeat chorus) Hang on to me tight and a rose in the wind Will be wherever you go On your way back home [Indonesian spoken] Can I take you back there? Drifting on the warm air Say you'll follow anywhere All of our nights into the jade skies I'll be true to you Flying over the moon Lying in the bamboo I'll always know the light in the window What to do with this love that I'm in I have given you all of my soul Flying all my life like a rose in the wind Tell me why I'm always alone On my way back home Alone
