Alison Krauss
"Two Highways"


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 rides my inner soul, my lover's home's my road

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 of you always shine

Wishing now that you had found a word or two to say
But the mornin' came and we both knew my eyes they veer 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
