Two highways lay before me, which one will I choose

Down one lane I'd find happiness and down the other I would 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



In the mornin' would I wake to find, down the wrong road I have gone

Will I hear the melodies 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



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



In the mornin' would I wake to find, down the wrong road I have gone

Will I hear the melodies 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
