Hey, look how far we've come, do we know who we are?
stranded on a mountain top trying to catch a falling star
here's to what we've left behind us, here's to what we've kept inside
may the road that lies before us lead to a place where love abides
I went walking with my baby through the early morning frost
saw three crosses by the roadside where three young souls were lost
i guess they're flying with the angels,
jesus took them for a ride high above the rio grande,
they'll find a place where love abides
You may cross the barren desert, you must walk your path alone
but a sudden storm may blind you, shake your spirit to the bone
seeking shelter for a weary heart, somewhere to rest, somewhere to hide
then somewhere down that troubled road
you find a place where love abides
Our people came across the water with their fearful untamed hearts
standing on a foreign shoreline, praying for a brand new start
hand in hand across the mountains and the ragin' rivers wide
'til they've reached the distant ocean or found a place where love abides
You may cross the barren desert, you might walk your path alone
but a sudden storm may blind you, shake your spirit to the bone
seeking shelter for a weary heart, somewhere to rest, somewhere to hide
then somewhere down that troubled road
you find a place where love abides
