Open road
We've got the open road
Nothing but blue skies
Used to the summer days

And to the starry nights

We took the long way
It was the scenic route
You told me all the things that you could never live without

Oh please, won't you leave me to my own thoughts?
Oh no, won't you show me where these paths cross?
Oh, take all the time that you could ever need
Await in the space where you first left me

Years from now
We'll see exactly how
All of these twists and turns
They wrap me up with you

And on the way
We'll make the same mistake
Learn just how long it takes
To change our point of view
Go through the motions
That's what you tell yourself
Taking the same advice
You gave to someone else

We've reached a crossroad
A split decision
You said you'd play along with only one condition

Oh please, won't you leave me to my own thoughts?
Oh no, won't you show me where these paths cross?
Oh, take all the time that you could ever need
Await in the space where you first left me

Years from now
We'll see exactly how
All of these twists and turns
They wrap me up with you

And on the way
We'll make the same mistake
Learn just how long it takes
To change our point of view

Years from now
We'll see exactly how
All of these twists and turns
They wrap me up with you
And on the way
We'll make the same mistake
Learn just how long it takes
To change our point of view
