Lyrics
[Verse 1] You drew a map across the back of your hand Three crooked rivers and a line of sand We took the long way past the county sign Chasing a rumor of a better sky [Pre-Chorus] Every mile changed the color of the day Every doubt grew smaller on the way [Chorus] Keep your compass pointing where we’re going Leave the old directions in the dust There’s a kind of courage in not knowing And a road that teaches us to trust If the whole wide world is turning under us I’ll be there, I’ll be there [Verse 2] A paper kite rose over wheat and stone Caught by a wind that wouldn’t leave us alone You laughed and ran until the string went slack Then handed me the sky and took it back [Pre-Chorus] We don’t need a promise carved in gold Just another little distance to unfold [Chorus] Keep your compass pointing where we’re going Leave the old directions in the dust There’s a kind of courage in not knowing And a road that teaches us to trust If the whole wide world is turning under us I’ll be there, I’ll be there [Bridge] Let the landmarks disappear Let the horizon draw us near No perfect answer, no fixed line Just your hand finding mine [Final Chorus] Keep your compass pointing where we’re going Leave the old directions in the dust There’s a kind of courage in not knowing And a road that teaches us to trust If the whole wide world is turning under us I’ll be there, I’ll be there I’ll be there, I’ll be there [Outro] Three crooked rivers, one open sky We keep moving, you and I
