There's a long and winding river   from the darkness to the dawn   it will carry and deliver you   when you walk on      No one here can say for certain   what lies in the great beyond   you'll pass through that parted curtain   when you walk on      you may grasp at the illusion   the confusion of your mind   but soon you will remember   to surrender one more time      You may fade out the doorway   Fly away above the throne   those who stay carry your story   a little glory lingers on      though the world you leave behind you   will become a distant song   every soul you loved will find you   when you walk on      when you walk on
