So much pain and no good reason why
You've cried until the tears run dry
And nothing here can make you understand
The one thing that you held so dear
Is slipping from your hands, and you say

Why, why, why
Does it go this way
And why, why, why
And all I can say

Is somewhere down the road
There'll be answers to the questions
And somewhere down the road
Tho' we cannot see it now

Somewhere down the road
You will find mighty arms reaching for you
And they will hold the answers
At the end of the road

Yesterday, I thought I'd seen it all
I thought I'd climbed the highest wall
Now I see the learning never ends
And all I know to do is keep on walking
Walking 'round the bend singing

Why, why, why
Does it go this way
And why, why, why
And all I can say

Is somewhere down the road
There'll be answers to the questions
And somewhere down the road
Tho' we cannot see it now

Somewhere down the road
You will find mighty arms reaching for you
And they will hold the answers
At the end of the road

Oh, keep on walking

Why, why, why
Does it go this way
And why, why, why
And all I can say
All I know to say now

Somewhere down the road
There'll be answers to the questions
And somewhere down the road
Tho' we cannot see it now

Somewhere down the road
You will find mighty arms reaching for you
And they will hold the answers
At the end of the road
Oh, they will hold the answers
At the end of the road

Oh, keep on walking, oh

Oh, walking down the road
Walking down the road

Somewhere down this lonely road
I can't see you know
Down the road, the lonely road
Somewhere down, somewhere down
