Heading off, we’re on our way,
In the clear fresh morning air,
Every step we take today,
Takes us closer, to the dream we’re building.
On we go again, my friend
Walking soft, upon on the earth,
Seeking truth along the trail,
We’re explorers, searching for life’s wonders.
CHORUS.
The tune we march to has no beat.
We pick each step, to make it sweeter, than the last,
And all the while - our laughter rings,
We talk - of life - and every-thing.
The gift of happiness is shared
Freely given, and received
A special bond, so rare and true,
- Setting stronger, as we grow together.
As we journey on and far,
- We don’t need a crystal ball,
There’s no point in looking, - round life’s corners,
On this misty path, toward our future.
CHORUS + inst’ solo
Mid 1.
Sometimes the path of life is rough,
Among uncharted mountains, on our way,
If it’s hard to find, no need for bother
- We can seek out way, from over yonder.
Mid 2.
In the evening’s firelight glow,
In the music that we share,
Raise your glass and sing along
Here’s to our friendship, deep and strong.
+ CHORUS. X 2
