lyrics

If it happens to God then why not to me?
Love comes without a return guarantee
And who says I'll ever love you?
Maybe I'll just admire you from afar.
So if your road and mine never meet
And someday I must admit defeat
I'll call out from here:

Go well and go far
Go well and go far
Go in peace and be blessed
One day I'll stop trying to see you
Go well and go far

I can only expect the future to repeat the past
All that I've known is all I can forecast.
But who says it goes like clockwork?
Maybe the rules I've observed don't actually apply
But if they do oh if they do
And you too must choose to pass me by
I'll call out from here:

Go well and go far
Go well and go far
Go in peace and be blessed
One day I'll stop trying to see you
Go well and go far

[But if you hear the broken sound of my voice
It's not too late to turn around,
The choice remains to come back and walk next to me]
