If you go your way my darling
Darling I'm wondering
If you go your way will I find mine
Well can we ever talk of leaving without crying
And if you keep leading will I stay blind
Maybe it's better left alone
Better left alone than left behind
Wrote you a letter in black and white
You know I couldn't say goodbye
So I left to write
You're not all wrong but I'm not all right
I guess I waste myself alone
I'm want run away from home some other night
If you go your way will I find mine
Well can we ever talk of leaving without crying
And if you keep leading will I stay blind
Maybe it's better left alone
Better left alone than left behind
If you go your way
If you go your way, my darling
Ah darling I'm wondering
Wondering was just another waist of precious time
With you goin' your way and me goin' mine.
Laid myself down to play a dream
I'll be blowin' out the dust and breathing in green
I'm going to place a moonstone under my tongue
It's gonna help me make my mind up
I want to wake up just in time to feel the sun
If you go your way will I find mine
Well can we ever talk of leaving without crying
And if you keep leading will I stay blind
Maybe it's better left alone
Better left alone than left behind
