High Road

How was I supposed to know

Where the road I’m taking goes

When I don’t even know

Where I stand?

How was I supposed to see

That you were walking there with me

When all I saw were strangers

In this land?

If I’d known then what I know now

Maybe you could’ve helped me out somehow

I guess not all roads are straight

And every path ain’t paved with gold

Wouldn’t it be great

If I had started fifty years ago?

Once upon a time

I would’ve taken the high road

But nowadays the easy ways

Are hidden down below

So I will see you when I see you

But for now, I gotta go

Back and forth along the shore

Don’t know what I’m searching for

Or how I’ll even know

What I’ve found

Maybe you’re beyond the sea

I didn’t know that there could be

A love that doesn’t

Have to make a sound

But how was I supposed to see

That you were walking there with me

When all I see are letters

In the sand?

If you had known then where I’d be now

Maybe you could have helped me out somehow

‘Cause not all roads are straight

And every path ain’t made of gold

I shouldn’t be late,

I should have started fifty years ago

Once upon a time

I would’ve taken the high road

But nowadays the easy ways

Are hidden down below

Life is such a winding road

Up and down, and round it goes

Love is only writing

In the sand

I’ve crossed the mountains and the shores

Been here so many times before

But this time you’re not here

To hold my hand

I wish you could be here with me now

I’m thinking I could’ve made it out somehow

‘Cause not all roads are straight

And every path ain’t made of gold

I shouldn’t be late,

I should have started fifty years ago

Once upon a time

I would’ve taken the high road

But nowadays the easy ways

Are hidden down below

I miss you and I hope to see you soon

You always put my life back in tune

I will see you when I see you

But for now I’ve gotta go
