Let's Walk Straight Until We Know

Two ways to go

We're at a crossroads

Stuck in the middle

Between every good and bad time we had

Either way could be a dead end

Without enough time to stop and start again

Every partly-painted picture on the horizon

Still shows a canvas yet to be imagined



As the wind blows softly through me

I don't know where to turn

A life I have to work so hard for

Or an easy way out to crash and burn

I want to take the hard way

But the pavement seems to end

Do I forget the road, go forward?

Or take the road where hearts have to mend?



I've only got a year now

To pretend I know what's wrong or right

If you adventure into the world with me

I promise to keep you safe tonight

If it's time to forget these feelings

And moving on is what I have to do

I'll take what's left of me now

And do whatever makes you happy and true



We are stuck here at a crossroads

I don't know which is the right way to go

So, if you don't mind a little patience

Let's both walk straight until we know

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Sometimes it's just necessary to make our own path...this is one of those times.
