The Roads Go Ever, Ever On

Roads go ever ever on
To the lands beyond the sea.
On the white ship will I sail
Watching shadows part for me.

Leaving havens grey with rain
Now that years have slipped away,
Leaving friends with gentle pain
As they start another day.

Roads I've travelled I must leave,
For I've turned the final bend.
Weep not empty tears but grieve
As the road comes to an end.

It's so easy not to try,
Let the world go drifting by.
If you never say hello,
You won't have to say goodby.

If you never say hello,
You won't have to say goodby.
