Two Highways

(Larry Cordle)



Two highways lay before me,

Which one will I choose

Down one lane I find happiness

And down the other I will 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.



Chorus:

In the mornin' would I wake to find,

Down the wrong road I have gone

Will I hear the melody I've searched for

Oh, so long.



Only time will tell

If I have made a loser's choice

And though sadness cries my inner soul,

Goodbye lover moans my voice.



Perils, there are many,

As I set out on my way

If I lose your love I know

That I can call it back someday.



Rambler, lonely rambler,

Just 'cause anyplace is home

Nashville lights

How you have always shined.



--- Instrumental ---



Wishing now that you had found

A word or two to say

But the mornin' 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.



Chorus:

In the mornin' would I wake to find,

Down the wrong road I have gone

Will I hear the melody I've searched for

Oh, so long.



And though sadness cries my inner soul,

Goodbye lover moans my voice...
