The Roads Goes Ever On

Lyric's adapted from J.R.R Tolkein's The Hobbit, sung to Leave Her Johnny, Leave Her. 07/2021

REFRAIN:

Roads go ever on
Still the roads go ever on
Where many a path and errands meet
Wither then, I cannot say

VERSES

Over rocks and over trees
Roads go ever on
By streams that never find the sea
Still the roads go ever on

REFRAIN

Over snow by winter sown
Roads go ever on
Over grass and over stone
Still the roads go ever on

REFRAIN

Through the merry flowers of June
Roads go ever on
And under mountains in the moon
Still the roads go ever on

REFRAIN

Under cloud and under star
Roads go ever on
Turn at last to home afar
Still the roads go ever on

REFRAIN

Eyes that fire and sword have seen
Roads go ever on
Look at last on meadows green
Still the roads go ever on

REFRAIN

And at last with weary feet
Roads go ever on
My evening rest and sleep to meet
Still the roads go ever on
