Words and music by Adam Beattie

lyrics

I’ve had my share of good times and bad
But they never told me as a lad
That you never get another look
Down the roads you never took

And to return and change your way
You’ll find it’s gone and there to stay
And still not get another look
Down the roads you never took

You may follow on down trampled routes
With heroes buried under foot
For we often tend to stay
Close to those who feel the same way

Down that road you’ll rue the day
You ever chose to come this way
You’ll never know the things forsaken
Down all the roads not taken

And the road it will not lengthen when
You go further, it will never end
You’re always standing at the start
Which too will vanish as you depart

I try my best to feel at ease
With all that’s blown by in the breeze
But now and then I am shaken
From a dream of all those roads not taken
