I watch your car as it drives by Not to be a stalker, but I watch it turn right Then soon you disappear into the night I always turn left—we go opposite ways You go east and I go west Where you go after that, I can only guess As I drive home with the radio on I wonder where your headlights have gone Have you ever traveled these roads before? Passed that diner or that little grocery store? Have you ever watched the sunset from this hill? Or found a place where everything stood still? I wonder if we've crossed a thousand times Before I ever knew your name was mine to find Maybe our stories met long before... Have we been traveling these roads before? Maybe we've waited at the same red light Just different cars on different nights Maybe we've stood in the same checkout line Never knowing one day you'd cross my mind Maybe you've walked the trails I always take Or sat by the lake around daybreak It's funny how a town can seem so small When I never noticed you at all What if our lives have been weaving together Long before we finally met? Maybe every road was leading somewhere And this was where they intersect Have you ever traveled these roads before? Maybe we've been strangers a hundred times or more Maybe fate was waiting patiently For the day you'd finally notice me Now every street reminds me somehow Of questions I still ask myself now Were we always meant to meet... Or did we simply take the same road home?
