Kris Delmhorst - Open Road Lyrics
You could make a happy ever after with all the love I've thrown awayYou could make some golden tomorrow with everything I left todayYou could make a mountain of excuses, find me any reason to stayBut it's too late for making offers, too late for anything that anyone might sayCause I got open road ahead of meAnd it goes as far as I can see (same as verse 1)Once you had everything to teach me, once I had everything to learnNow you can stand beside me one more time and watch these pretty bridges burnAnd then you can take the high road way up there where everything's so clearAnd I will keep wandering around these back alleywaysI will try to find my own way out of here, try to find thatOpen road ahead of meCause it goes as far as I can seeAnd if the truth be told I'd live my life that wayWith an open road, nothing to hold, and nothing standing in my wayAnd I will leave this sweet New England, I will leave these ghosts of youI will climb onto that train, find a seat that's got no viewAnd I will take what I need with me, I will not take what I don'tAnd I will say that I'll be back here but I'll know that I won'tAnd I will live with empty pockets, I will live with empty sleevesAnd I will know that there is nothing in this world I cannot leaveAnd I will tell my friends I love them, I will just hope that they knowThat I need nobody beside me on this open roadYou could make a happy ever after
