Many Roads
Andrew Peterson

If you'll step inside this great glass elevator

It'll take us up above the city lights

To where the planet curves away to the equator

I wanna 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


Well, 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

And I will sing to you with all I have to give

'Cause 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

And 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


'Cause it could 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


'Cause we got Benjamin to play that old piano

And 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, yeah


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


Well, could it be that the many roads I took to get here

Were just for me to hear that story and for you to sing 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
