|
It's been a long haul
|
L.A. to LA
|
We've always done it our way
|
That's just how we are
|
Rolling off that mountain
|
Headed out for glory
|
I guess you heard the story
|
Man, we felt so strong
|
I never thought we'd laugh this long.
|
|
We are all drifters
|
Singers and sisters
|
Brothers and lovers and mothers and confidantes
|
We were born alone
|
We're alone when we're gone
|
So while we're here
|
We might as well just sing along.
|
|
Keeping up the good fight
|
And we'll be alright
|
We always have each other
|
And that's all we need
|
And if you want to find us
|
We left a map behind us
|
Meeting in the circle
|
Swirling sky and stars
|
You never have to look too far.
|
|
'Cause we are all drifters
|
Singers and sisters
|
Brothers and lovers and mothers and confidantes
|
We were born alone
|
We're alone when we're gone
|
So while we're here
|
We might as well just sing along.
|
|
You don't understand, no
|
You don't understand.
|
|
And if we're all wrong
|
We'll have to sing our own songs
|
To one another
|
Until we grow old
|
And that's the way we started
|
And even if we're parted
|
There'll always be a road sign
|
To lead us home
|
We never have to be alone.
|
|
'Cause we are all drifters
|
Singers and sisters
|
Brothers and lovers and mothers and confidantes
|
We were born alone
|
We're alone when we're gone
|
So while we're here
|
We might as well just...
|
|
We are all drifters (we're all drifters)
|
Singers and sisters (singers and sisters)
|
Brothers and lovers and mothers and confidantes
|
We were born alone
|
We're alone when we're gone
|
So while we're here
|
We might as well just sing along.
|
|
And while you're here
|
You might as well just sing along.
