Lyrics

I got all the way to Franklin Road before I knew what I was doing
I was driving past our house again for one more look at what I'm losing
I'm so used to driving home that way, to where your loving arms would welcome me
Now I'll have to find a new way home, wherever that may be

CH-So I guess I'll keep on driving 'til I find a place to turn my life around
I can't see the road through all these tears, and I just keep on breaking down
In my mind I know you're gone for good, and so I hide the way I feel
But every road would lead me back to you if my heart was at the wheel

When I made the turn at Chestnut Lane I could see the tree we planted
And that old familiar front porch swing, one more thing I took for granted
And the rail I always swore I'd fix lying broken on the stairs
If you let things go for long enough, they end up way beyond repair - CH

I got all the way to Franklin Road before I knew what I was doing
