Two Highways (1989)
Two highways lay before me which one would I choose?
Down one lane I'd find happiness and down the other I would lose
There is no one that I can trust I must decide alone
My decision is an awful one which road will take me home?

In the morning would I wake to find down the wrong road I had gone?
Will I hear the melodies I've searched for oh so long?
Only time will tell if I have made a loser's choice
Hello sadness, cries my inner soul goodbye lover, moans my voice

Perils today are many as I set out on my way
If I lose your love, I know that I can’t call it back someday
Rambler, lonely rambler just calls any place his home
But Nashville's lights, how beautiful you shine

Wishing now that you had found a word or two to say
But the morning came and we both knew my eyes gave it away
As I kissed your cheeks and said goodbye I thought, only time will tell
And you can't draw water from an empty well

In the morning would I wake to find down the wrong road I had gone?
Will I hear the melodies I've searched for oh so long?
Only time will tell if I have made a loser's choice
Hello sadness cries my inner soul goodbye lover moans my voice
