There’s Always Another Path

I walked out the door I thought I knew
But could I walk out with you
Fly out to New York
And the fork
In the road as it splits in two
Is just a bend when I’m with you
And you locked the gate on your way out
Enough to fill me with surreptitious doubt
As I wondered what could he mean
When he says he is caught in the dream
Does he not want to wake up
Why does he push away my love
When I let it be seen so clear
Does he not know I hold him dear
Or does he venom the rejection
When I failed to make a selection
When he offered me grey, green and yellow
I never was one to be mellow
Always verdant but fiery red
And I never had him in my bed
But I still wish I could see
His unbridled eternity
Burn with a ferocity untamed
You don’t know a think when its named
And I know he found it with her
But I trust the weather
To bring back the storm
That keeps my blood warm
As I stand at the outpost
As white as a ghost
