Crossroads Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Time has washed away and now I may wonder
How did it all slip by?
’Cause I always thought we had forever
Future calls to me to take me away from things
I don't want to leave behind
Like I'm slipping away
I can't hold on

[Chorus] x2
Find that path alone
Crossroads lead me away
But that's not what worries me
I just want to know what's home


Through it all my mind still wanders
To the one who touched my soul
Though her road leads away
She's still my
True love
I could believe
Say it again, again, again
Will is not enough when all those
Lost days stand in the way
She was all my hopes and dreams, my
Whole world
I could believe
Been a long time, won't be again
[Bridge]
I still want to know
Want to know
Who can see for me, yeah, yeah
Crossroads tell me

[Verse 2]
Now you'll have to trade
Your past away
And find another day
So is change a friend or an enemy
Through what comes to pass
I'll find my way
I've seen it all before
But is the best you can be
The best thing to be

[Outro]
Some people say
You're just wasting time
But that's not what worries me
I just want to know what's home

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
