|
| and i know you think your right
|
| and maybe you are
|
| but i’m putting up a fight
|
| this time
|
| and there’s nothing you can say
|
| the road is open and i’m on my way
|
| and i’ll be taking the back roads.
|
| the wind in the trees
|
| whispers all i need to know
|
| about the weather up ahead
|
| should i stay or should go?
|

|
| and i don’t want to miss a sign

|
| i just have to do it my way now
|
