Take Care the Road You Choose Richard Thompson

[Verse 1]
Oh, if I ever get out of these shoes
And I shrug off a, a skin or two
I'll come looking in all the wasted places
Mmm, beat-up, last ditch rendezvous

[Pre-Chorus]
If it had been some other place
Some other time to find me
If I had been in my right mind
Not looking for ghosts behind me

[Chorus]
Then I'd hold you with my fingers burning
Kiss away your little tears of yearning
But sometimes there's no turning—
Take care the road you choose

[Verse 2]
Oh, if I ever get out of my mind
Mmm, guillotine myself to stop me dreaming
And let my heart go where it will
Without all those other voices screaming

[Pre-Chorus]
Some take the high, some take the low
Some take the straight and narrow
Some still standing at the crossroads
And some flying like an arrow
