When you find yourself at a crossroads in a relationship

lyrics

A Clock in the Road (by Tommy Ring and Kimberly Sickel)

When I came to a clock in the road
the time was left for me to go
left for me
to go
away

Follow the river's road and flow
or swim upstream, get my oars and row
get my oars
and row
which way?

Did I, stutter, at your front door
Did I, mutter, that I am yours
Did I, clutter, your bedroom floor
again?
I did it again

Trashing time when it floats by
stretching legs and my heart untie
my heart
untie
the twine

My mind is numb, my muscles are new
I was yours, but the thought of you
the thought
of you
is mine

Will you, dance, though we're out of time
Will you, stop, twirling on my dime
Will you, spin another storyline 'round me
Spin yourself 'round me

Unravelling a stitch on the bridge
up ahead, around a ridge
around
a ridge
I see

A crayon sky, a pinup tattoo
it always seems to come back to you
come back
to you
and me

Could we, bring, back the simple ways
Could we, swing, into yesterday
Could we, sing, on the stage and raise
the roof
Come on, let's raise the roof!

When I came to a clock in the road
the time was right for me to go
right for me
to go

right for me
to go

right for me
to go

or stay

And I give myself permission. ... more
