back to that fork in the road

HOLLYWOOD, Michael Nesmith

The sun that's calling from the southwestern sky
Tells me that I must depart
By sundown today, I'll be on my way
But I'll be leaving my heart
It's not the countryside that appeals to my eyes
It's the spirit that captured my mind
But the things I tried to be made a wreck out of me
Now a different road I must find
These things I think are new, I guess they're really old
It seems that I've done 'em all before
Now to go back to that fork in the road
Takes all the strength of my soul and more
Ah, good-bye, good good-bye, cruel town
You've been a fairweathered friend
Now I will go to some place that I know
Where things don't start just to end
Ah, good-bye, good good-bye, cruel town
You've been a fairweathered friend
Now I will go to some place that I know
Where things don't start just to end


...isn't it crazy how a stranger wrote my exact thoughts 30 years ago? I think I'll sue.
