This Ragged Road

Oh this world has changed beneath our feet
And we're dancing to it's strange new beat
But it feels okay. And it feels completely right to me
Oh what a sight to see

A new day is stretching out it's light, chasing off the frigid night
And the bitter fear we might not hear it calling
With it's new song for the new day dawning
Stretching, smiling, laughing, yawning
Soaked in amber hues of morning gold
As we find ourselves here wandering down this ragged road

Folks will say you brightened up my life
Maybe even taught my heart to fly
In a world full of hatred laced with lies
There is safety in your arms and in your eyes
When love prevails the trail is splendid
Believe me when I say that now I know
I need your love and friendship down this ragged road

This graveled line, this ragged road, is traveled light and it's traveled slow
By those who flourish and those who know there is no need to rush tomorrow

Oh this world has changed beneath our feet
And we may stumble but we'll never miss a beat
And we'll be okay. And it feels completely right to see
You walking right with me

And there is no destination known. But this journey finally feels like home
So we'll decorate this winding path we wander
With memories it pleases us to honor
So let's get up and let's get rolling
Even if we don't know where we're going
It's just nice to be out strolling down this ragged road
