On My Way

"Head To The Heart" is the name of the road

'Cross mountains, valleys, switchbacks, and stones

The longest of journeys that I've ever known

To take me, take me home

I walked for many-a-miles, many-a-days

Months became years, they asked me my age

I said, "I couldn't see what difference it makes

Once we reach, we reach home".

Off in the distance, there must be a place

Somewhere to find rest, some light on your face

She said, "I've always been open

So come through my gate."

I said, "Love, I'm on my way

I'm on my way".

I started to doubt that I might arrive

Sometimes I wandered and one time I cried

On the breast of a woman who paid a high price

To say "yes"

"Yes" to home

I asked her, "What does it feel like?"

"And how will I know?"

"How long must I wait?"

"Which way do I go?"

She said, "I've always been open

So come through my gate."

I said, "Love, I'm on my way

I'm on my way".

One day in the distance, a mountain did rise

But one that was different, it wore a disguise

I saw my destination for the first time

Yes, I saw it clearly, but not with my eyes

And when I arrived I met a young man

He showed me his heart

He showed me his hands

He wore a strange crown

Said it hurts where he stands, but "welcome

Welcome home".

I said, "Show me the table

I'm a traveling man

I'll eat every last crumb

I'll take all that I can

And she said, "I've always been open

So come through my gate."

I said, "Love, I'm on my way

I'm on my way".

So, "Head To The Heart" is the name of the road

'Cross mountains, valleys, switchbacks, and stones

The longest of journeys that I've ever known

To take me, take me home
