Along The Road Lyrics by Doc & Merle Watson

Red Rocking Chair

1981

[Chorus]
Joy at the start, fear in the journey, joy in the coming home
A part of the heart gets lost in the learning somewhere along the road
[Verse 1]
Along the road, your path may wander, a pilgrim's faith may fail
But absence makes the heart grow fonder when darkness hides the trail
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Cursing the quest, courting disaster, measureless nights forebode
Moments of rest and glimpses of laughter are treasures along thе road
[Verse 3]
When the road gets rough, your stеps may stumble and your thoughts may start to stray
But through it all, a heart held humble will level and light your way
[Chorus]
Joy at the start, fear in the journey, joy in the coming home
A part of the heart gets lost in the learning somewhere along the road
A part of the heart gets lost in the learning somewhere along the road
