We have got to come together
How long can we stay apart?
You may get it maybe never
But it's coming from the heart.
.
Your life is full of indecision
You can't make up your mind.
We must get it in position
And move it on down the line.
.
'Cause the road is long, it's a long hard climb
I been on that road too long of a time
Yes the road is long, and it winds and winds
When I think of the love that I left behind.
.
Make me up a bed of roses
And hang them down from the vine
Of all my loves you've been the closest
That's ever been on my mind.
.
Please don't talk about tomorrow
I'm really not one to care
This world is filled with too much sorrow
That nobody's heart should bear.
.
'Cause the road is long, it's a long hard climb
I been on that road too long of a time
Yes the road is long, and it winds and winds
When I think of the love that I left behind.
.
Please, please give me indication
Stop and talk to me
Like a river that is flowing
My love will never cease to be.
.
You will always be my honey
No one could take your part
Our love can't be bought with money
'Cause it's coming from the heart.
.
'Cause the road is long, it's a long hard climb
I been on that road too long of a time
Yes the road is long, and it winds and winds
When I think of the love that I left behind.
