Two paths diverged in a yellow wood one unknown and one understood One dark and dreamy One alight but dreary Walked upon by two travelers long One impatient and oh so weary One settled and oh so Leary
What change do we need we'll walk in between
How and why There's no outcome to be seen
To be oh to be! Just settle once in your ways and follow me!
I cannot I am far too tired I'm afraid I must sleep At the cross roads of my life let me lay and weep
Get up I say it'll be ok just so long as we know the way The lighter path may be a bit unpleasant but at least all is quite apparent
I cannot I will not We'll end up peasants! Why not explore, beg for more! A darker path for a brighter life A future that goes further instead of scrapping the bottom line
I'm sorry to choose but I don't like to lose Change is too scary, I'm afraid I'm leaving you
My life, my love We've made flesh and blood To leave for a common impressioninstead of working for somethingrefreshing is the worst possible path I'm sorry I just can't live with that
I can't follow you I know so I must go
The two travelers paths diverged in a yellow wood They left each other No longer side by side Along the paths they fretted Waiting for a time mist dreaded That old familiar sigh, of another traveler by their side
