A Past Less Travelled

All I have to say is what's in my mouth And bitterness and spite aren't company And the memory of you will wash away in the night Oh I pray you never see me in this light Cause I only wanted what was best for me Five years on in the dark, on the run from what I know And I only wanted the best from you And the selfishness ain't the same When you're 20 years old with feet on fire And a heart after desire And the longest way to go Is the long way home What I had I count as loss On account of who I was Timing the line with the gaze of an eye And the absence of company Oh I pray you never see me in this light Cause I only wanted what was best for me Five years on in the dark, on the run from what I know And I only wanted the best from you And the selfishness ain't the same And hey ay ay yay The horizon never stretched so far And hey ay ay yay It's a journey to your heart
