One Way

(album: The Mountain - 2018)

Well she could be like a song
The kind that with time always comes back on
But something tells me she's gone
There's no coats, there's no rhymes, there's no singing along
I pushed her just a little too far for a little too long
It's a little too late for me to keep her from

Highways and byways
That'll take her anywhere but my way
There's so many ways
She could say goodbye
Railways and runways
From the way she was looking, I'm afraid that
Whatever the way it's gonna be one way this time

Well she was like my guitar
Always waiting around just to be in my arms
You can't play with a heart
Shouldn't ever have left her
Alone in the dark

I couldn't see it back then
Oh but look at her now
You can't pick it back up
Once it's headed down

Highways and byways
That'll take her anywhere but my way
There's so many ways
She could say goodbye
Railways and runways
From the way she was looking, I'm afraid that
Whatever the way it's gonna be one way this time

I pushed her just a little too far
For a little too long
And gave her little choice but to get on

Highways and byways
That'll take her anywhere but my way
There's so many ways
She could say goodbye
Railways and runways
From the way she was looking, I'm afraid that
Whatever the way it's gonna be one way this time
Whatever the way it's gonna be one way this time
