Take Care the Road You Choose

Richard Thompson

[Verse 1]
Oh, if I ever get out of these shoes
And I shrug off a, a skin or two
I'll come looking in all the wasted places
Mmm, beat-up, last ditch rendezvous

[Pre-Chorus]
If it had been some other place
Some other time to find me
If I had been in my right mind
Not looking for ghosts behind me

[Chorus]
Then I'd hold you with my fingers burning
Kiss away your little tears of yearning
But sometimes there's no turning—
Take care the road you choose

[Verse 2]
Oh, if I ever get out of my mind
Mmm, guillotine myself to stop me dreaming
And let my heart go where it will
Without all those other voices screaming

[Pre-Chorus]
Some take the high, some take the low
Some take the straight and narrow
Some still standing at the crossroads
And some flying like an arrow

[Chorus]
With my radar I'll find you, darling
No regrets to blind you, darling
And never look behind—
Oh, take care the road you choose

[Pre-Chorus]
If it had been some other place
Some other time to find me
If I had been in my right mind
Not looking for ghosts behind me

[Chorus]
Then I'd hold you with my fingers burning
Kiss away your little tears of yearning
But sometimes there's no turning—
Take care the road you choose
Take care the road you choose
Take care the road you choose
