Austin B. Sweeney - Keep the Lantern Burning Lyrics




I've got the road stretched out before me
Miles and miles, to go before I rest
With just me and this guitar, goodbye to my home
In the Pacific Northwest
I've put my money down, you can place your bets
We'll see who wins
These four wheels spinning round, round and round they go, we'll see where it ends

Tell my family I won't be gone too long
And keep the lantern burning, help me find my way back home
Know that on my journey, tears may fall sometimes
That just means I'm learning something beautiful about this life

I haven't got all the answers, but Lord knows I try
And act like I do
When I'm feeling lonely, I'll drive out to some old dirt road
And think of you
It's a long road ahead with 22 years behind, and I'm chasing dreams
So far from my hometown to Nashville, but when I feel lost
I know it's closer than it seems

Tell my family I won't be gone too long
And keep the lantern burning, help me find my way back home
Know that on my journey, tears may fall sometimes
That just means I'm learning something beautiful about this life

I miss my home, but a man has to be strong
When the night is much too long, I'll pray for the morning sun
And I'll stay strong when the night is much too long
Pray for the morning sun, smile and carry on

Tell my family I won't be gone too long
And keep the lantern burning, help me find my way back home
Know that on my journey, tears may fall sometimes
That just means I'm learning something beautiful about this life
