The road to everywhere

Title: The Road to Everywhere
(Verse 1) (Bard)
With a silver tongue and a rented lute
And a dusty pair of traveling boots
I left the gates of the stone-walled town
Before the morning sun looked down.
The coins are thin but the spirit’s high
Underneath a wide and an open sky
With a rhyme for the rich and a joke for the poor
And a foot always stuck in a tavern door.
(Chorus) (Bard, Balladeer duo)
Oh, the road is long and the wine is sweet
With a rhythm found in my wandering feet
I’ll sing of the dragons and kings of old
For a scrap of bread or a glint of gold!
From the mountain peak to the valley low
Where the stories live is where I’ll go.
(Verse 2)(Bard)
I’ve outrun guards and I’ve out-sung storms
I’ve slept in haystacks to keep me warm
I’ve cheated death with a clever verse
And lightened the weight of a noble’s purse.
But the best of tales aren't found in books
They’re in campfire smoke and the knowing looks
Of a balladeer friend on the path ahead
Sharing the path and the crust of bread.
(Chorus) (Bard, Balladeer Duo)
Oh, the road is long and the wine is sweet
With a rhythm found in my wandering feet
I’ll sing of the dragons and kings of old
For a scrap of bread or a glint of gold!
From the mountain peak to the valley low
Where the stories live is where I’ll go.
(Bridge)
Let the knights have their steel and the wizards their flame
I’ll conquer the world with a song and a name
For steel will rust and the spells will fade
But a melody lives in the memories made.
(Outro) (Bard)
So tune the strings and clear the throat
We’ve got a world to see and a tale to quote.
(Fading lute strumming with the sound of walking on gravel)
