Lyrics
I am leaving you tomorrow
and I won't be back again,
won't be feeling too much sorrow
'cause you caused me too much pain,
so I'm watching autumn leaves outside my window,
and I'm thinking 'bout the seeds that I have sowed,
but I won't be 'round to see them as they're growing,
'cause you are just another fork along the road,
just another fork along the road.
INSTRUMENTAL
Do you remember when our love was incandescent,
when your heart for me burned so much that you glowed?
Now our love is gone,
it's only so much ashes,
and you are just another fork along the road,
just another fork along the road.
I won't stop to say goodbye as I am leaving,
to journey on to some forgotten town,
and I won't look back in anger or in sorrow,
"cause I'll never let your pity bring me down,
so I'll look ahead to laughter in the sunshine,
and forget about the debt that I am owed,
and I'll learn next time to spend my love more wisely,
and not upon some fork along the road,
just another fork along the road,
just another fork along the road.
