Open Road

Make it happy ever after

With all the love I've thrown away

Make some golden tomorrow

With everything I left today

And you could make a mountain of excuses

Find me any reason to stay

But it's too late for making offers

Too late for anything that anyone might say

I got open road ahead of me

And it goes as far as I can see

Once you had everything to teach me

Once I had everything to learn

Now you can stand beside me one more time

And watch these pretty bridges burn

And then you can take the high road

Way up there where every thing's so clear

And I will keep wandering around these back alleyways

I will try to find my own way out of here, try to find that

Open road ahead of me

'Cause it goes as far as I can see

And if the truth be told

I'd live my life that way

With an open road, nothing to hold

Nothing standing in my way

And I will leave this sweet new England

And I will leave these ghosts of you

I will climb onto that train

Find a seat that's got no view

And I will take what I need with me

I will not take what I don't

And I will say that I'll be back here

But I'll know that I won't

And I will live with empty pockets

And I will live with empty sleeves

I will know that there is nothing in this world

I cannot leave

And I will tell my friends I love them

I will hope that they know

That I need nobody beside me

On this open road

Make it happy ever

Make it happy ever

Make it happy ever

Happy ever day

Make it happy ever

Make it happy ever

Make it happy ever day, girl

Make it happy ever

Make it happy ever

Make it happy ever

Happy ever day

Make it happy ever

Make it happy ever

Make it happy ever

Happy day
