We have got to come together   How long can we stay apart?   You may get it maybe never   But it's coming from the heart.      Your life is full of indecision   You can't make up your mind.   We must get it in position   And move it on down the line.      'Cause the road is long, it's a long hard climb   I been on that road too long of a time   Yes the road is long, and it winds and winds   When I think of the love that I left behind.      Make me up a bed of roses   And hang them down from the vine   Of all my loves you've been the closest   That's ever been on my mind.      Please don't talk about tomorrow   I'm really not one to care   This world is filled with too much sorrow   That nobody's heart should bear.      'Cause the road is long, it's a long hard climb   I been on that road too long of a time   Yes the road is long, and it winds and winds   When I think of the love that I left behind.      Please, please give me indication   Stop and talk to me   Like a river that is flowing   My love will never cease to be.      You will always be my honey   No one could take your part   Our love can't be bought with money   'Cause it's coming from the heart.      'Cause the road is long, it's a long hard climb   I been on that road too long of a time   Yes the road is long, and it winds and winds   When I think of the love that I left behind.
