The Road Not Taken - Johnny Hates Jazz

The things that I could have done

The songs that I should have sung

But it wasn’t that easy

The times that I could have stayed

The love that we would have made

But it wasn’t that easy

These, these are the thoughts

That come back to haunt me late at night

Why can’t I forgive myself?

For the road not taken

A path forsaken

And though my heart is breaking

Ain’t it time to move on?

The life that we could have shared

The beauty and the despair

Or so I believed

And yet my greatest mistake

The road that I chose to take

Was to leave

No, there’s no holding on

To something that’s gone and wasn’t to be

Then why can’t I forgive myself?

For the road not taken

A path forsaken

And though my heart is breaking

Ain’t it time to move on?

And now the tears have been shed

There are new roads ahead

I can set myself free

Time, time to forgive myself

For the road not taken

A path forsaken

'Cause when your hopes are shaken

You’ve got to reawaken

And though my heart is breaking

Ain’t it time to move on?
