ALL THE ROADS    LYRICS

  ALL THE ROADS

Songwriter  JOHN HARVEY

I have travelled many years in all directions
All the roads I tried were going the other way
I was looking for someone with true affection
But they all just broke my heart then went away

I had thought the misery would last forever
Till I saw you smile at me that lucky day
All the roads that we both traveled came together
And since then we've loved each other everyday

(Chorus)
   All the roads we tried before were just the byways
   Now they're part of all that's gone from yesterday
   All the roads we travel now are happy highways
   And they're part of all the love we share today

I had thought the misery would last forever
Till I saw you smile at me that lucky day
All the roads that we both traveled came together
And since then we've loved each other everyday

(Chorus)
   All the roads we tried before were just the byways
   Now they're part of all that's gone from yesterday
   All the roads we travel now are happy highways
   And they're part of all the love we share today
