Testo The Road Ahead

I looked in the eyes of a middle aged man
and I saw myself someday
with some money saved up and a couple of kids
if I'm lucky I'll be that way

But right now all thats a mystery
Laid out there in front of me
Chorus
The road ahead is wide and clear
And every mile is one short year
And they tell me there gonna fly
But all I've got is time

I've got a girl and only god knows
Just how far down that road goes
For now it's going alright
But I'm not thinking about tonight
Got my mind on tomorrow instead
I'm just looking at the road ahead

Verse 2
Every handshake with my Grandpa
I'm thinking will be my last
Cause most of his road as we know
Is behind him in the past
But I'll have him in my heart to guide me through
The things that I should and should not do

Chorus 2 second half

Most of the roads that I've been on
were dirt and gravel but there all gone
Mostly dead ends anyway
I've cut the chains on yesterday
Got my mind on tomorrow instead
I'm just looking at the road ahead

Chorus 3 not full

I've got time on my side and one willing heart
And a GMC and a pretty good start
And for now it's running alright
But I'm not thinking about tonight
Got my mind on tomorrow instead
I'm just looking at the road ahead
