The Path
Lise Olden Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am near, closing in, into the target, you know where to find me
I won't go any other way than the one that will lead me to my dream

I have walked this path alone
Sometimes hand in hand with you
You have made a different choice
That choice is leading you away
But still my friend you will remain

I'm far away, far away, you can't see me
I'm far away, far away, you can't hear me

I am near, closing in, into the target, you know where to find me
I won't go any other way than the one that will lead me to my dream

You are welcome to share my dream
Walk the path with me again
I will be your guiding star
I will always go on
No regrets, I'm going on

I'm far away, far away, you can't see me
I'm far away, far away, you can't hear me

I am near, closing in, into the target, you know where to find me
I won't go any other way than the one that will lead me to my dream





I am near, closing in, into the target, you know where to find me
I won't go any other way than the one that will lead me to my dream
