The Yellow Brick Road
The courage I lack to make you mine
Still haunts me everyday
Your beauty grows from Heaven's vine
And I'm just in the way
I lack the knowledge to follow my dreams
For I fear it's all in vain
But that's the way it always seems
Since love has taken my brain
I just don't seem to have the heart
To tell you how I feel
Each day we're growing further apart
'Til I wonder if it's real
Maybe in a different time and place
Where love is free to roam
I'll finally catch the things I chase
And make my heart your home
'Til then I'm lost, my life a void
As I watch my path erode
I'll collect the things that time destroyed
And follow the yellow brick road
