Lyrics

LIFE IS AN OPEN ROAD
Music: Axel O
Lyrics: Axel O & Haraldur Jóhannsson
He headed out the door in a hurry
They said there was reason to be worried
A call in the middle of the night,
The Doctor said he's not gonna win this fight

You never know, Where life will take you next
You gotta roll with the punches, and do your best
Life is an open road, paved with memories
Lookin' back, you better like what you see
Life is an open road, paved with memories,
Life is an open road

His Grandpa lay in the hospital bed,
He could tell by his breathing- that it wouldn't be long now
It was the last time he'd see him alive,
he had to go on his own, for the rest of his life.

You never know, Where life will take you next
You gotta roll with the punches, and do your best
Life is an open road, paved with memories
Lookin' back, you better like what you see
Life is an open road, paved with memories,
Life is an open road

Before he left he whispered to the old man
Though you're leavin' this is not the end
The things you taught me will carry on
through my children and their daughters and sons

You never know, Where life will take you next
You gotta roll with the punches, and do your best
Life is an open road, paved with memories
Lookin' back, you better like what you see
Life is an open road, paved with memories,
Life is an open road
