Freda Payne - The Road We Didn't Take lyrics

[Chorus] I've gone through life pretending That time will change the ending And find the road we didn't take The life we didn't make But those mistakes behind me Cast shadows to remind me Of the road we didn't take The years we threw away [Verse 1] Nameless faces come like haunting dreams Words we spoke but didn't mean I watch my life as it unwinds I see the years I left behind Tears go rushing down my face For the years I threw away Far away [Chorus] I've gone through life pretending That time will change the ending And find the road we didn't take The life we didn't make But those mistakes behind me Cast shadows to remind me Of the road we didn't take The years we threw away [Verse 2] In my hands, I hold the burnt-out ends Pages of the past where we began The love I thought would always stand I found was built on shifting sand The road to life went a different way The road we should've took yesterday So far away [Outro] (I've gone through life pretending That time will change the ending But those mistakes behind me Cast shadows to remind me Oooooooooooooooooh, oooooooooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) [Chorus] I've gone through life pretending That time will change the ending And find the road we didn't take The life we didn't make But those mistakes behind me Cast shadows to remind me Of the road we didn't take The years we threw away
