Thought I knew my mind
Like the back of my hand
The gold and the rainbow
Nothing panned out as I planned
They say only milk and honey's
Gonna make your soul satisfied
Well I better learn how to swim
'Cause the crossing is chilly and wide
Twisted guardrails on the highway
Broken glass on the cement
A ghost of someone's tragedy
How recklessly my time has been spent
They say that it's never too late
But you don't, you don't get any younger
Well I better learn how to starve the emptiness
And feed the hunger
Up on the watershed
Standing at the fork in the road
You can stand there and agonize
Till your agony's your heaviest load
You'll never fly as the crow flies
Get used to a country mile
When you're learning to face
The path at your pace, every choice is worth your while
And there's always retrospect
To light a clearer path
Every five years or so I look back on my life
And I have a good laugh
You start at the top, go full circle round
Catch a breeze, take a spill
But endin' up where I started again
Makes me wanna stand still
Up on the watershed
Standing at the fork in the road
You can stand there and agonize
Till your agony's your heaviest load
Never fly as the crow flies
Get used to a country mile
When you're learning to face
The path at your pace, every choice is worth your while
Stepping on a crack
Breaking up and looking back
Till every tree limb overhead just seems to sit and wait
Till every step you take becomes a twist of fate
Up on the watershed
Standing at the fork in the road
You can stand there and agonize
Till your agony's your heaviest load
You'll never fly as the crow flies
Get used to a country mile
When you're learning to face
The path at your pace, every choice is worth your while
Up on the watershed
Standing at the fork in the road
You can stand there and agonize
Till your agony's your heaviest load
Never fly as the crow flies
Get used to a country mile
When you're learning to face
The path at your pace, every choice is worth your while
And when you're learning to face
The path at your pace, every choice is worth your while
