When you come to a fork in the road
And you don't know which way to go
Your head knows the right way
But your heart won't let you go
You've come to a fork in the road
When your dreams begin to vanish in the air
When hope runs out and you're left standing there
Lost without a compass
Not knowing which way to turn
You've come to a fork in the road
You realize that this ain't no vacation
More like a bad trip and your strapped with a heavy load
Just another desperate situation
That ends at the fork in the road
When the sky turns dark, no light to help you see
Blurred vision, doubt and mixed anxiety
You're ready to explode
Seems like you can't go on
You've come to a fork in the road
When the wind turns cold on warm Summer nights
You lie awake and you can't sleep at night
You wonder how you got here
And how to get back home
You've come to a fork in the road
You realize that this ain't no vacation
More like a bad trip and your strapped with a heavy load
Just another desperate situation
That ends at the fork in the road
Life's journey is never a straight line
It's filled with so many twists and turns
It's likely that life's hardest decisions
Are the only ones that ever make you learn
They're the only ones that ever make you learn
