On the Road to Copenhagen

I left my name and my number
On your precious answering machine
Just hopin' that you would remember
That we once shared a dream
You went to the places we talked of
You put sails on the plans that we made
And you hit the road to freedom
Oh, me? I just stayed

I can hear our songs on the radio
At nighttime, the sleep won't come
And the words, they sound so familiar
Like those of long-lost sun
We thought we could climb any mountain
We thought we could raise any wind
But I just want you to call me
Just to tell me how you've been

On the road to Copenhagen
I somehow lost my way
On the road to Copenhagen
Lead myself astray

And the years, they went by
Left me stranded with myself
And the women that I used to love
Oh, they took off by themselves
I thought I could silence each question
Thought I could buy every round
But I guess I learned how to listen
Now that silence is the only sound

On the road to Copenhagen
I somehow lost my way
On the road to Copenhagen
Lead myself astray
I keep my windows pointin' south
Still yearnin' to get out
And the road to Copenhagen
Shall be my path of light
And I guess you've got it all made (got it all made)
And your effort, they were paid
But I just want you to call me
Just to tell me how you've been

On the road to Copenhagen
I somehow lost my way
On the road to Copenhagen
Lead myself astray
I keep my windows pointin' south
Still yearning to get out
And the road to Copenhagen
Shall be my path of light
