When You Walk Down The Road

There are just two ways to go, two paths to take, two roads on the way. You may either take the right road or the wrong road. What if we can no longer see those on the other side once we get on the road of good and what if those of the road of bad can seek those on the other side?  Worse, what if those on the wrong road never understand where they are or where the other road leads once they have gotten on their way.



 

 

When You Walk Down The Road

 

Where are you going to my friend

Have you no time to spend

Even a moment, just a part of your day

No time to stop if only to say

 

You wish you could maybe when you pass again

Or are you so rushed to catch the 9 to 5 train

Used to be that we would find

 

Worthwhile things to call to mind

And we never took long, they were just there

Looked like we had so much to share

Kept close ties and much we knew

 

Didn’t hesitate to speak you to me and I to you

Once I saw you, there was time to stop

Why are you now so pressed, with little to drop

Now you walk by not even a smile, you move fast

 

There is little time, you never turn your head like days past

How come? Why my friend? Where do you go?

Earnestly I ask dear friend, I want to know

 

Roads we’ve walked together now you turned that that path

Once before when others walked that way you too would laugh

And now you have this air, like a greater calling you obey

Do you not see when you walk down the road you walk that way
