Alison Krauss And Union Station – Two Highways lyrics

(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...
