The Road Not Taken Songtext

von Shenandoah

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
I"d go back and rechoose if I could
But here I lay now, sick and so confused
Was it a lie or was it all true

Sleep now gently my darling love,
Don"t let my worries trouble you
People try hard to forget
But memories always stay
Nightmares and dreams of long passed things
Try and chase me away from sleep
All that time I spent in the dark

Just like that; I"m in the light;
Everything will be fine
Notice all the similarities
We go together like the birds and bees

Just imagine what all could have happened
Every one I knew would long be dead
What really goes on behind closed doors
Makes me secretly cry out loud
Within all these horror stories
Lay many times of regret
Always in such a frightened state

Trapped in an imaginary cage
Living life day by day
And soon enough; some day;
I"ll come out and play
In a world where everything is upside down
I try hard not to lose my mind
Things keep getting worse so
I tell myself everything will be fine
I want to grow up and be a real bad cop
In the end, it"ll work
