Yesteday I missed my exit
|
On my way to Sears
|
A song was on the radio
|
I hadn't heard in years
|
|
For a minute there the interstate
|
Was 2nd Avenue
|
And I was singing "Everlasting Love"
|
And driving home to you
|
|
Somewhere down that road not taken
|
Will forever live those dreams that were forsaken
|
Just every now and then
|
I think what would have been
|
Somewhere down that road not taken
|
|
By now we'd have our own business
|
And a house just out of town
|
In a neighborhood that smelled like dinner
|
When the sun went down
|
|
Two kids playing in their rooms
|
With toys we never had
|
A little girl who looks like you
|
And a boy, just like his dad
|
|
Somewhere down that road not taken
|
Will forever live those dreams
|
That were forsaken
|
Just every now and then
|
I think about what would have been
|
Somewhere down that road not taken
|
|
What if I had asked you
|
What if you'd said "yes"
|
There's no way I'll ever know
|
Still I can't help but guess
|
|
Somewhere down that road not taken
|
Will forever live those dreams
|
That were forsaken
|
Just every now and then
|
I miss a place I've never been
|
Somewhere down that road not taken
|
|
Yesterday I missed my exit
|
On my way to Sears
|
