- Lyrics:

I'm standing at the Crossroad
There are many roads to take
I stand here so silently
I’ve got fear of a mistake

One road lead to paradise
One road lead to pain
One road lead to freedom
I swear they all look the same

Well I have traveled many roads
And not all of them were good
The foolish ones taught more to me
Than the wise ones ever could

One road lead to sacrifice
One road lead to shame
One road lead me to freedom
But I swear they all look the same

They were roads I've never travelled
And the turn I did not take
And the mysteries I could not unravelled
Baby leaving you, that’s my mistake

So I'm standing at the Crossroads

I’m Imprison by my doubt
As if by doing nothing
I might find my way out

One road lead to paradise
And one road lead to pain
And one road lead me to freedom
But I swear they all look the same

They were roads I've never travelled
And the turn I did not take
And the mysteries I could not unravelled
Leaving you, that’s my only mistake
Leaving you….
I'm standing at the Crossroad
There are many roads to take
I stand here so silently
I’ve got fear of a mistake

One road lead to paradise
One road lead to pain
One road lead to freedom
I swear they all look the same

Well I have traveled many roads
And not all of them were good
The foolish ones taught more to me
Than the wise ones ever could

One road lead to sacrifice
One road lead to shame
One road lead me to freedom
But I swear they all look the same

They were roads I've never travelled
And the turn I did not take
And the mysteries I could not unravelled
Baby leaving you, that’s my mistake

So I'm standing at the Crossroads

I’m Imprison by my doubt
As if by doing nothing
I might find my way out

One road lead to paradise
And one road lead to pain
And one road lead me to freedom
But I swear they all look the same

They were roads I've never travelled
And the turn I did not take
And the mysteries I could not unravelled
Leaving you, that’s my only mistake
Leaving you..
