  • I don't know where this road is going to lead me
    But I'm hoping that with you I can make it through
    I've had enough of this life to lead me,
    Right up to the edge of the world I knew

    I can't wait, just to see another day
    If it means it's one, more day
    That I'm with you, ooh

    Down this road, we'll look back at
    All we've known, found a love
    That can’t grow old, just passing through,
    From the world I knew, the world I knew

    I’ve never seen a sunrise like this one, no
    It’s like the whole world’s waking up for us, mm
    They say tomorrow can promise us anything, ooh
    So I'll take every moment and make it now yea yea yea

    I can't wait, just to see another day
    If it means it's one, more day
    That I'm with you, I’m with you

    Down this road, we'll look back at
    All we've known, found a love
    That can’t grow old, just passing through,
    From the world I knew

    I'll be loving your light, 'till it fades away
    Tell the world I know
    'Cause it will never change
    If something feels so right
    Just can't turn the page
    There's too much to lose
    We're just passing, through

    Time won't stop
    Wish that we could turn back the clock

    I can't wait, just to see another day
    If it means it's one, more day
    That I'm with you, I’m with you

    Down this road, we'll look back at
    All we've known, found a love
    That can’t grow old, just passing through

    From the world I knew
    From the world I knew
    From the world I knew
    From the world I knew
    From the world I knew Publisher: Kobalt Music Publishing Ltd.
