Its been a long haul
L.a. to la
Weve always done it our way
Thats 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 wed laugh this long.
We are all drifters
Singers and sisters
Brothers and lovers and mothers and confidantes
We were born alone
Were alone when were gone
So while were here
We might as well just sing along.
Keeping up the good fight
And well be alright
We always have each other
And thats 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
Were alone when were gone
So while were here
We might as well just sing along.
You dont understand, no
You dont understand.
And if were all wrong
Well have to sing our own songs
To one another
Until we grow old
And thats the way we started
And even if were parted
Therell 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
Were alone when were gone
So while were here
We might as well just...
We are all drifters (were all drifters)
Singers and sisters (singers and sisters)
Brothers and lovers and mothers and confidantes
We were born alone
Were alone when were gone
So while were here
We might as well just sing along.
And while youre here
You might as well just sing along.
