Road Less Travelled

Looking behind
to see how far I’ve come
there are roads less travelled
and mine is one
it became clear
some time ago
there’s still distance to be travelled
before I’ll know What
The destination looks like
And how I’ll feel
when I arrive
another day moving
through the wilderness
the thoughts are racing
but it’s just a test
The destination is calling
Salvation almost in sight?
When I arrive
When I arrive
Mountains to climb
and rivers to cross
don’t let the dead weight hold you back
don’t carry a lead weight upon your back
Looking behind
to see how far I’ve come
When I arrive
When I arrive
When I arrive
When I arrive

Adeline
Dance in shadow, be my light
We balance, yet don’t cross the line
Adeline
A smile like sunbeams,
warms my soul
For a moment I’m whole
Time, torments us
And keeps me far from you
But we wait, relentless
Over a year without you
Adeline
It’s been five years
Yet still we’re here
Another lifetime,
Adeline
Time, protects us
But I’ve felt so far from you
You’re still the gentlest
Soul I ever knew
Time, torments us
And keeps me far from you
But I wait, relentless
For you

What Could Have Been
03:38
|

A choice was made
I could have stayed
Was it for the best?
Did I pass your test?
I left in haste
and upon my face
a guilty smile,
my conscience thanked you
it was the right thing to do
What could have been
We could have been
But we’ll never know
we’ll never know
What could have been
We could have been
Just never go
You never know
The rain came down
I almost drowned
but it couldn’t wash away the thought
that leaving was a last resort
I couldn’t sleep
We were meant to meet
Did it count for nought?
Or is life too short?
What could have been
We could have been
But we’ll never know
we’ll never know
What could have been
We could have been
Just never go
You never know
I know, I know
I see uncertainty in your eyes
You know, you know
you saw it reflected in mine
but one day this might be
A distant memory
Maybe we might reminisce
about what could have been, or is
What could have been
We could have been
But we’ll never know
we’ll never know

Why Wait
03:35

Why, why wait?
The truth will out one day
Why, pretend?
you’ve gone and lost your way
I can tell when you’re lying
It’s every time your mouth moves
I don’t know what you are trying
But I’ve got too much to lose
And so have you
Why, why wait?
A Sorry is not that hard
Why deny?
This time you’ve gone too far
Can I trust my sensations
I keep asking is it me
Gas light illuminations
It’s all ended in defeat
You haven’t broken me
Why, why wait?
To show me your true face
Why, so late?
Now gone without a trace
Sleepless nights and bad dreams
you’ve poisoned the back of my mind
But we all see it now so clearly
These are the ties that bind
Why, why waste
A moment more on you?
Why, why waste
A moment more on you?
