Lyrics
Along The Way
Along the way I hope you'll think of me, and how we touched each others' lives, remember what I said, along the way should there come a cloud, a stormy wind or a change in weather, I will be the fastest moving train, I will be your shelter from the rain, should you ever need a hand. Along the way there will surely be those who'll tell you anything to take your love for free. Along the way you just watch your step, careful not to hurry into anything that's less than what we had. I never ever want you to be sad, won't you think of what I've said along the way.
By the time you are old and grey, thinking only in the past, don't forget a promise that I made. Timeless love has never known an age, won't you think of me at times along the way.
c 1988 Linda Mckenzie Addagirl Music (ASCAP)
