Roadmaps

Clickety-clack go these old hubcaps

As you I drive away from you and you drive away from me.

You are on a journey with some old roadmaps

And you keep circling the place that you want to be.

As I pull up to my house I remember back

When you said that our love really frightened you.

How some things are so good it could never last

And I knew there was nothing that I could do.

Because I'm not her.

I'm not the one who left you wild and feeling sorry

I'm not her. I'm not the one who broke your heart

No I'm not that, though I may as well have been

Because you already wrote our story.

I'm not her. I'm just me.

When the tears fall I think of where I've been

Alot has come and gone leaving not a doubt

That when you're so afraid of being taken in

You can't be taken out.

As I cry for me I guess I cry for you

The journey's still ahead, there's no going back.

There's already miles between us two

Because I got a new roadmap.
