Lyrics

THE ROAD LEFT UNCHOSEN
Words and music by Ray Kim and Bob Blanchard

1: Girl, it seems like yesterday...
You and me on the long road going home...
Late at night on the bus from Boston,
So weary, and all alone...

I can still see that look in your eyes,
And I can still feel your long brown hair,
And I think we both knew at that moment
Just how much we both cared...

Chorus: The road left unchosen...
We could?ve had it all...
Where would we be if I had stayed with you...?

The moment is frozen
Deep in my memory...
That a moment could last forever
is just something that I never knew,
But sometimes they do...

2: Girl, that was ten years ago...
And to this day, it still haunts me to the end...
I had a good thing looking me right in the eyes,
And I let it slip right through my hands...

I was so unsure about my feelings,
But I always thought I had time to wait...
And I finally said how I felt about you,
But by then, it was too late...

Chorus: The road left unchosen...
We could?ve had it all...
Where would we be if I had stayed with you...?

The moment is frozen
Deep in my memory...
That a moment could last forever
is just something that I never knew,
But sometimes they do...
