Текст песни
[Verse 1] You drew a compass on the back of your hand Four little arrows, no promised land We took the footpath past the county line Counting the mile markers, losing track of time [Pre-Chorus] Every wrong turn opened something wide A different color on the mountainside [Chorus] Keep your eyes on the far blue ridge Take the long way, cross the old stone bridge If the map goes pale, let the wild grass choose There’s a thousand roads and only one you [Verse 2] A fox watched us from a field of gold Bright as a secret nobody told You laughed when the compass spun in the heat Then pointed north with your scuffed-up feet [Pre-Chorus] Every wrong turn opened something wide A different color on the mountainside [Chorus] Keep your eyes on the far blue ridge Take the long way, cross the old stone bridge If the map goes pale, let the wild grass choose There’s a thousand roads and only one you [Bridge] No finish line, no flag to claim Just changing ground and a borrowed name When the trail divides beneath the pines Put your hand in mine, we’ll read the signs [Final Chorus] Keep your eyes on the far blue ridge Take the long way, cross the old stone bridge For the first half, let the quiet pull us through Just your breath and mine, beneath the open blue [Final Chorus - Full] Keep your eyes on the far blue ridge Take the long way, cross the old stone bridge If the map goes pale, let the wild grass choose There’s a thousand roads and only one you There’s a thousand roads and only one you [Outro] One road bending into something new One wide world waiting there for you
