Watershed

Thought i knew my mind

Like the back of my hand

The gold and the rainbow

But nothing panned out as i planned

And they say only milk and honey's

Gonna make your soul satisfied

Well i better learn how to swim

Cause the crossing is chilly and wide



Twisted guardrails on the highway

Broken glass on the cement

A ghost of someone's tragedy

How recklessly my time has been spent

They say that it's never too late

But you don't, you don't get any younger

Well i better learn how to starve the emptiness

And feed the hunger



Up on the watershed

Standing at the fork in the road

You can stand there and agonize

Till your agony's your heaviest load

You'll never fly as the crow flies

Get used to a country mile

When you're learning to face

The path at your pace

Every choice is worth your while



And there's always retrospect

(when you're looking back)

To light a clearer path

Every five years or so i look back on my life

And i have a good laugh

You start at the top

Go full circle round

Catch a breeze

Take a spill

But ending up where i started again

Makes me wanna stand still



Up on the watershed

Standing at the fork in the road

You can stand there and agonize

Till your agony's your heaviest load

You'll never fly as the crow flies

Get used to a country mile

When you're learning to face

The path at your pace

Every choice is worth your while



Stepping on a crack

Breaking up and looking back

Til every tree limb overhead just seems to sit and wait

Til every step you take becomes a twist of fate



Up on the watershed

Standing at the fork in the road

You can stand there and agonize

Till your agony's your heaviest load

You'll never fly as the crow flies

Get used to a country mile

When you're learning to face

The path at your pace

Every choice is worth your while



Up on the watershed

Standing at the fork in the road

You can stand there and agonize

Till your agony's your heaviest load

You'll never fly as the crow flies

Get used to a country mile

When you're learning to face

The path at your pace

Every choice is worth your while



And when you're learning to face

The path at your pace

Every choice is worth your while
