Andrew Peterson - Many Roads lyrics

If you'll step inside this great gla** elevator It'll take us up above the city lights To where the planet curves away to the equator I want to show you something fine You can see the roads that we all traveled just to get here A million minuscule decisions in a line Why they brought us to this moment isn't clear But that's all right, we've got all night Could it be that the many roads You took to get here Were just for me to tell this story And for you to hear this song And your many hopes And your many fears Were meant to bring you here all along So if you'll trust me with your time I'll spend it wisely I will sing to you with all I have to give If you traveled all this way, then I will do my best to play My biggest hits (that don't exist) And if you'll lend to me your ear I'll sing 'em pretty I will never, ever sing 'em out of tune And I will not forget the words, Of any chorus, bridge, or verse I promise you We've got Benjamin to play the grand piano If we're lucky it's a little out of tune We've got Andy on the guitar 'cause I promised him Some Texas barbecue How I love to watch you listen to the music 'Cause you sing to me a music of your own As I cast out all these lines, so afraid that I will find I am alone, all alone Could it be that the many roads I took to get here Were just for you to tell that story And for me to hear that song And my many hopes And my many fears Were meant to bring me here all along We were meant to be right here all along
