Текст пісні
You're either a poet or you're a lover
Or you're the famous Benjamin Stone
You take one road, you try one door
There isn't time for any more
One's life consists of either or
One has regrets, which one forgets
And as the years go on
The road you didn't take
Hardly comes to mind, does it?
The door you didn't try
Where could it have led?
The choice you didn't make never was defined
Was it?
Dreams you didn't dare are dead
Were they ever there?
Who said
I don't remember?
I don't remember
At all
The books I'll never read
Wouldn't change a thing
Would they?
The girls I'll never know
I'm too tired for
The lives I'll never lead
Couldn't make me sing
Could they?
Could they?
Could they?
Chances that you miss, ignore
Ignorance is bliss, what's more?
You won't remember
You won't remember at all
Not at all
You yearn for the women, long for the money
Envy the famous Benjamin Stones
You take your road, the decades fly
The yearnings fade, the longings die
You learn to bid them all goodbye
And oh, the peace, the blessed peace
At last you come to know
The roads you never take
Go through rocky ground
Don't they?
The choices that you make
Aren't all that grim
The worlds you never see
Still will be around
Won't they?
The Ben I'll never be
Who remembers him?
