Daniel Lavoie - Henry lyrics

He told me a story about a
Long long way to go
It was an endless conversation when
All I said was hello
But all through the night he spoke
To me expounding his philosophy
He said the only truth is
In a travelling song
One for the road to tap your foot along
He said we have a long long
Way to go so it's good, feels so good
When you sing sing a song
Cause travelling along just a-singing
A song is a mighty fine way to go
A mighty fine way to get you to the next town
Travelling along just a-singing a song is
A mighty fine way to go
And when the tale was over and
I knew him like a friend
I asked him if he had the time
I'd like to hear it all over again
But he turned away and without a word
Started walking down the road
Laughing, singing, talking to himself
And when I looked again he was already gone
