I'm Going Left
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(Well) I'm goin' left
'Til you lead me to the right
Lead me to what is right
I'm goin' left
'Til you lead me to the right
Lead me to what is right
There's a train people say
I could ride to get my whole life straight
But the bridge on the way
Has a toll too much for me to pay
Yes I know this must be
What I chose could be my destiny
Lights are green all is go
But my heart keeps telling my mind no
(Well) I'm goin' left
'Til you lead me to the right
Lead me to what is right
I'm goin' left
'Til you lead me to the right
Lead me to what is right
There's a land over there
Where all are given equal share
What you get is so small
It's like never having nothing at all
Take my hand as a friend
A will stick with you until the end
But I'm in doubt I must decline
'Cause even friends can change their minds
(Well) I'm goin' left
'Til you lead me to the right
Lead me to what is right
I'm goin' left
'Til you lead me to the right
Lead me to what is right
