I travelled the long road just so you would listen 

I travelled the long road just me and my intuition 

No body seemed to understand just why I left with the clothes on by back 

They asked why such a drastic change 

I just know that my decision will put me on track 



That is why I travelled the long road 

So I can smile again feel good inside again maybe even laugh again 

I am going to travel 



They closed so many doors on me 

So I climbed right in the window 

Cause as long as I can breathe I see that my spirit is protecting me 

Oh they say that good things come to those who have the patience to remain the same 

Don't sacrifice your everything just to be some temporary vision that's gonna change 



You've gotta travel the long road 

So you can smile again feel good inside again maybe even laugh again 

You have got to travel 



Just let your heart carry you through cause it knows what you are trying to do 

And love is such a beautiful truth it gives strength to make it thru 

When you walking down the road of life keep your head up and get ready to run 

Cause you probably have to feel some pain 

But it's a sacrifice a chosen few will have to make 



You've gotta travel 

They say that good things come to those who have the patience to remain the same 

Don't you sacrifice your everything just to be some temporary vision that's gonna change 



You've gotta travel the long road 

So you can smile again 

Feel good inside again maybe even laugh again 

You've gotta travel the long road (ooh) 

You've gotta travel 

Keep your head up to the sky 

When the day is done you know you have gotta travel 

Get on your knees and pray 

Travel the long road.
