Walking down the street on a lonely road
Wishing taking chances was easier than I was told
I watch the sky and wonder what should've I done
Why didn't I do what seemed to be true.
Now you're walking down a different road just as lonely as mine.
Yet with one big exception - you smile.
I should've turned back
I should've gone home,
Why did I have to choose the lonely road.
Now two people walk alone and I know we'll stay that way.
Watching, waiting and from each other - far away.
Smiling for the sun that lightens the way
And attention for each other is something we'll never pay.
Both hoping to find someone who's exactly the same
Yet with a different face.
To forget the pain,
Cause the mind, the heart and soul have all been slain.
