Down That Road

[Intro] Oh I've been down that road [Verse 1] Holding my ground and it kills me 'Cause you're so cool to be around When you're around But I think you've lost you And I think of other lovers lost And the soul wrenching cost And I'd rather have you in my life, yeah Feeling down But empowered just the same High on the pain that I'm saying no to Don't wanna be another lesson learned Another stripe you've earned So goodbye [Pre-Chorus] Sometimes the light just fades Yeah the ball of yarn that just runs out And you hold on for dear life Coming from a place of doubt Sometimes the light just fades Yeah the ball of yarn just runs out And you hold on for dear life Coming from a place of doubt [Chorus] Well I've been down that road once or twice before Once or twice before I ain't going there again You can't take me there I won't follow you I will walk away While I still can call you a friend [Verse 2] Led me down the garden path Then who's left with the aftermath And it doesn't add up It's a mixed equation Was in for the long haul Yeah you were my all-in-all Guess I was your recreation [Pre-Chorus 2] Sometimes you swim and swim Expecting to see something more And your whole soul gives out Before you reach the shore Sometimes you swim And you see nothing more And your whole soul gives out Before you reach the shore [Chorus] Well I've been down that road once or twice before Once or twice before I ain't going down again You can't take me there I won't follow you I won't follow you To some bitter bitter end Whoh, woah, I've been down that road [Bridge] Soothing music plays Used to think of our somedays When there was a someday But it came too soon Soothing music plays Used to think of our somedays When there was a someday But it came too soon Just as well [Chorus] 'Cause I've been down that road once or twice before Once or twice before I ain't going down again You can't take me there I won't follow you I won't follow you Oh no I've been down that road, been down that road before Ain't going down again Oh no I ain't going there again I've been down that road, been down that road before Ain't going down again Um I've been down that road, been down that road before Ain't going down again Oh, you can't take me there I've been down that road, been down that road before Ain't going down again Whoa I've been down that road, been down that road before Ain't going down again
