Byways
Could've gone to England
Could've gone to France
Didn't want to stay home
Didn't want my past
Thoughts fly by like lights in the night
from a car grabbin' asphalt as it speeds out of sight
One stays here and then never will leave
While another takes off
And he will never say
Walking down the boardwalk with me and my wife
Looking down at the sand thinking what was my life
I had a choice and I took this one
So yeah, here I am, but am I having fun
Down the boardwalk with me and my wife
Looking down at the sand thinking what was my life
My mortgage is paid and the kids are fine
So yeah, here I am but am I having fun
There's a ship in every harbor
Of every city that I know
There's a million people on it
And everyone knows I've come far
There's a ship in every harbor
Of every city that I know
There's a million people on it
And everyone knows I've come far
Tires squeal as the road turns real
No looking back so hold onto your pack
Mountains rise where the river began
And I'm pointed down the highway toward the valley of sound
One stays here and then never will leave
While another takes off
And he will never say
Walking down the boardwalk with me and my wife
Looking down at the sand thinking what was my life
I had a choice and I took this one
So yeah, here I am, but am I having fun
Down the boardwalk with me and my wife
Looking down at the sand thinking what was my life
My mortgage is paid and the kids are fine
So yeah, here I am but am I having fun
There's a ship in every harbor
Of every city that I know
There's a million people on it
And everyone knows I've come far
There's a train in every country
I don't have to know it's there
There's a million people on it
And they come from everywhere
Could've gone to England
Could've gone to France
Didn't want to stay home
Didn't want my past
Thoughts fly by like lights in the night
from a car grabbin' asphalt as it speeds out of sight
One stays here and then never will leave
While another takes off
And he will never say
Walking down the boardwalk with me and my wife
Looking down at the sand thinking what was my life
I had a choice and I took this one
So yeah, here I am, but am I having fun
Down the boardwalk with me and my wife
Looking down at the sand thinking what was my life
My mortgage is paid and the kids are fine
So yeah, here I am but am I having fun
There's a ship in every harbor
Of every city that I know
There's a million people on it
And everyone knows I've come far
There's a train in every country
I don't have to know it's there
There's a million people on it
And they come from everywhere
Could've gone to France
Didn't want to stay home
Didn't want my past
Thoughts fly by like lights in the night
