I put on my old leather boots
And I tramped the city streets of Amsterdam
Got a mind to look for clues
Reflections in their eyes of who I am
Smiled to myself
Cause I know that I can help
Help myself

But the journey is long
And the past fades away
Everyone stands alone
On that judgment day
Every fork in the road
Every path that you take
Brings you closer to home
And the journey is long.

Passin peoples starin faces
Going through the motions and wondering why
Is everything that time embraces
Sure to pass and were no more the wise
Bound by circumstance to do the best we can
And we can

And the journey is long
And the past fades away
Everyone stands alone
On that judgment day
Every fork in the road
Every path that you take
Brings you closer to home
And the journey is long.
