Dark Path
Isobel Anderson
A silent solitary room
With postcards on the walls from you
Too scared to take them down
I guess it's just it feels too soon
Sometimes I like to hurt myself
By dreaming that I'm somewhere else
A wild enchanted place
I see myself
I keep myself in this place
I'll be there
I'll be there beneath the trees
On the dark path
Where we stood together
And leads nowhere and
I don't care
I don't care if it rains
I'll always want to be
On the road that leads to you
And even though it's dark outside
I see tiny twinkling lights
That help me see the signs
There's still life
And my skin is six years younger
And my mind's naive
And full of hope
And though I know that waiting only makes you stand still
I still hope
I'll be there
I'll be there beneath the trees
On the dark path
Where we stood together
And leads nowhere and
I don't care
I don't care if it rains
I'll always want to be
On the road that leads to you
