I wandered down the pathway
Through the misty moor
Like I knew he did
A thousand times before

Voices seem to echo
"Come talk with me a while
Just around the corner,
Just another mile."

I had heard the stories
Her legend served her well
A mystic's myth or fable
Truth or fairy tale

A raggle taggle gypsy
With a toothless smile
Said "Sit with me my darling
Let's talk a little while."

And the road goes on
Seeming ever longer
On the way
To Mandalay

And the road goes on
Forever will I wander
On the way
To Mandalay.

The mile went on forever
The minutes turned to days
Could I have been misguided
By the mystic's ways?

The moment lasts forever
At least it does for me
Caught between what happened
And what could never be

And the road goes on
Seeming ever longer
On the way
To Mandalay

And the road goes on
Forever will I wander
On the way
To Mandalay

[Instrumental Break]

And the road goes on
Seeming ever longer
On the way
To Mandalay

And the road goes on
Forever will I wander
On the way
To Mandalay

And the road goes on
Seeming ever longer
On the way
To Mandalay

And the road goes on
Forever will I wander
On the way
To Mandalay

Road goes on...
Road goes on...
Road goes on...
Road goes on...
