LYRICS:
You travel alone, the road is long, inside your head you keep a song
To pass the time and ease the pain, what gets you down is the rain
The space in your heart left by friends leaves you chilled by the wind
as each chapter ends
She said, you can stay in my garden; you can stay there for free
If it's cold outside, come in and stay with me
The names and faces seem the same, but the memories of the places remain
Like a friend that you longed to know from a time long ago
But you pedal on not sure of the way or of the place that you’ll have to stay
You just hope it's for free
She said, you can stay in my garden; you can stay there for free
If it's cold outside, come in and stay with me
You can stay with me where the ground is flat, it's a perfect place to build your house
And always, remember that you can come inside where it is warm
Tonight, with me you need not be alone
After a day in the rain and cold, tonight with me you'll be at home
You can stay in my garden; you can stay there for free
If it rains outside, if the wind’s too strong to hide, come in and stay with me
People pass you by when you ride along, like chapters in a book or the words in this song
They’ll give you shelter when winds are strong, so I’m glad to stay but I can’t stay long
There’s more riding, I’ve still got more writing to do
The space in your heart from the people you meet, they start off as strangers on trails and the streets
You hear their stories as you write yours, from strangers to friends, to strangers again
I still miss them, pages in my story
The road is long but you pedal on, the friends you meet become the song
