[Verse 1] I kept the coat for the road I declined, The little blue ticket still tucked in a drawer. Somewhere a kitchen has my other name, Somewhere I’m knocking on somebody’s door. [Chorus] All those lives I never lived Still drift past like leaves in rain. I can miss the doors I didn’t open And love the room I’m in today. [Verse 2] I wonder who I’d be in that far-off town, With a different laugh and a different view. But the kettle sings, and you’re calling me back, And this small, ordinary life is true. [Chorus] All those lives I never lived Still drift past like leaves in rain. I can miss the doors I didn’t open And love the room I’m in today. [Outro] No need to chase each vanished road; Your hand is here. My heart can stay.
