Tonic Sol-Fa and Shaun Johnson & the Big Band Experience - Sweet Time

I just got one more mile to go before I sleep
I've been traveling all day long
Wishing I could wind the clock back up again
And when I wake I'd find the years would all be gone

Never did I hear how easy life would be
Or the road less traveled that I've traveled by
And if this day should be taken as I lay me down to rest
I will thank the Lord above for my sweet time

Looking back I see the blessings in my life
I feel the love I held so close at hand
And nothing seems to matter quite as much to me
As those days I could've been a better man

Yeah, the sun is going down now
And the stars don't seem to shine as bright as they did when I was a kid
The ships out on the horizon probably won't sail in
But it doesn't stop me wishing for what might have been

Never did I hear how easy life would be
Or the road less traveled that I've traveled by
And if this day should be taken as I lay me down to rest
I will thank the Lord above for my sweet time
