Have you ever wondered what life would be like
|
If you'd only went left instead of taking that right
|
If you had waited just ten more minutes to leave the house
|
Would it all be different
|
Every decision everything we choose has a consequence whether we win or lose
|
Nobody knows that any better than me
|
I left her standing at the station with a ticket and a dream
|
|
She's the train that I didn't take
|
The big commitment I just couldn't make
|
For fear of breaking my heart, I didn't risk the ride
|
She's the lesson I learned the hard way
|
Now being lonely is the price I pay
|
The river of regret runs deep and wide
|
Here on the safe side
|
|
I still remember the night she left
|
She said she didn't want to lose me, but she had to find herself
|
I could've stopped her or got on board with her
|
But now it's too late to reconsider
|
|
She's the train that I didn't take
|
The big commitment I just couldn't make
|
For fear of breaking my heart, I didn't risk the ride
|
She's the lesson I learned the hard way
|
Now being lonely is the price I pay
|
The river of regret runs deep and wide
|
Here on the safe side
|
Sometimes the greatest risk of all
|
Is never taking one at all
|
She's the train that I didn't take
|
The big commitment I just couldn't make
|
For fear of breaking my heart, I didn't risk the ride
|
She's the lesson I learned the hard way
|
Now being lonely is the price I pay
|
The river of regret runs deep and wide
|
Here on the safe side
|
Oh I don't want to be alone
|
Here on the safe side
|
