Been Down That Road Before

Been Down That Road Before

written by: Timothy Wallstrom

 

I had been down this road before.
I knew what this feeling had in store.

But I kept on, down the road,
Oh I kept on down that road.

Couldn’t resist the look in her eyes,
Or the fear of the goodbyes.
I wanted to hold you through the night
Keep warm in my arms wrapped tight
Lay our heads down on pillows for rest
Search our souls for the final test

I had been down this road before
Already knew what was in store
Couldn’t stop from wanting more
What I want I am not sure
I had been down this road before
I knew what it had in store.

I lie awake at night and ache for you
I walk my days in search of you
My heart is empty yet remains whole
The pieces taken are from the soul
And yet I still have love to share
Don’t know if she would even care.

I had been down this road before
Already knew what was in store
Couldn’t stop from wanting more
What I want I am not sure
I have been down this road before
So knew what it had in store.

I just don’t want to hurt no more
I want to be happy like before
Don’t want hurt no more
Just be happy like before…
I already knew what was in store
Cause I been down this road before.
