lonely road home

there we were, a crossroad
she demanded an aswer
where do we go from here?
head down, i stayed silence
distant intention to reply
what's the point?

she had precisely concluded which way to take
she could go on believing her stars were bright on the other side
but mine has always been above my home
there she was in my red cadillac
sped off along the highway
as for me, i walked the road i know best
all alone along the lonely road home
