1 of 2 Ways

One – I wait and see what transpires

Living on Skype or a telephone wire

Two I let go and I regret

A boy that I had but I can’t forget

Either way I go, there’s gonna be scars

And try as I might, I can’t see that far

No matter what I do you’ll board that plane

There’s no way to avoid that pain

I knew the end of this story right from the start

And yet I couldn’t do a thing to protect my heart

I’m hoping he’ll return to me someday

Knowing this is gonna go one of two ways

One – I knew what I was getting into

Don’t ask why I really couldn’t tell you

Two – what’s done has already happened

Caused more trouble than I ever imagined

Either way I go, I'm against the wall

Letting go is right, but I'd lose it all

No matter what I do you’ll board that plane

There’s no way to avoid that pain

I knew the end of this story right from the start

And yet I couldn’t do a thing to protect my heart

I’m hoping he’ll return to me someday

Knowing this is gonna go one of two ways

I’m torn down the middle, do I wait for you?

Knowing there’s a chance before we’re through

Do I let go and look back someday?

Wishing I’d had you somehow, some way?

No matter what I do you’ll board that plane

There’s no way to avoid that pain

I knew the end of this story right from the start

And yet I couldn’t do a thing to protect my heart

I’m hoping he’ll return to me someday

Knowing this is gonna go one of two ways

I had the opportunity to stop myself... the moment he said, "This is not a good idea - I'm leaving next Summer no matter what." I knew what I was getting into. There was a split second where there was a choice to make... did I make the right one or the wrong one? Well - that's why this song was written... there is just no knowing where the journey will take us.
