I had it all lined up And then my future crashed I heard the deadbolt lock And there stood my past But there are no signs for tomorrow On the back roads of my sorrow I could beg, steal, I could borrow But the grace will have to come to me I'm gonna shake my soul and release my hold Givin' up control and let the rest unfold 'Cause it's a long, long way from here to where we go Take off the training wheels Lift off the handle bars I'll drive right through my fears And resurrect my heart And even in my darkest hour When my tears stay undercover I know it one way or another Love is coming back around to me I'm gonna shake my soul and release my hold Givin' up control and let the rest unfold 'Cause it's a long, long way from here to where we go In the face that I wore as a child I can see myself Every day of my life I'm trying just to free myself To be myself And the rain comes I can hear it Like a bass drum loud and clear it's Ancient wisdom of the spirit Ali, Ali in come free I'm gonna shake my soul and release my hold Givin' up control and let the rest unfold And when the fold wins both and the rivers flow We gonna rockin' more, 'cause when it all gets stored It's a long, long way from here to where we go It's a long, long way from here to where we go Oh, no, it's a long, long way from here to where we go It's a long, long way from here to where we go It's a long, long way from here to where we go It's a long, long way from here to where we go
