  • Not by the way of an apology
    For the things that I have done
    Do I set my boat upon the sea
    So like thunder, I am breaking free
    In the landscape of the heart
    It's hard to tell what's really taken me

    Now I see it all through different eyes
    This emotion can't be wrong
    Past the mountains under empy skies
    And the road goes on and on.

    I've been living through this poetry
    Tangled words and worn out prose
    Love is needing, love is bleeding me

    Now I see it all through different eyes
    This emotion can't be wrong
    Past the mountains under empty skies
    The road goes on
    Now I see it all through different eyes
    Where I'm going, where I've gone
    All I know - I'm still surprised
    That the road goes on and on. Writer/s: DAVID F FRANK PAICH, GLEN BALLARD, STEVEN LEE LUKATHER

  • Bernard from UsaI believe this song was written by Lukather and Paich following the death of Jeff Porcaro. They're processing what it will be like to go on as a band without him.
  • Leon from Mexico City, MexicoI guess this is a good way to find my favorite songs.
