Текст песни The Path Not Taken

What if he hadn't made the choice he made?

What if he'd been willing to throw the dice?

What if he'd been willing to pay the price?

Would it have been different had he traveled the path not taken

You get there quicker on the Interstate

The road is smoother but the view's not great

It's easy on the tires and the gasoline

But the towns and the people that you might have seen

Pass right by in the dead of the night

Forever to remain out of your sight

They'll be no photographs worth taking

No memories that are worth relating

You might regret that you've forsaken

The chance to take the path not taken

What if he hadn't played the cards he laid?

What if he'd been willing to take one more hit?

To go for broke instead of faking it

Would it have been different had he gone for the inside straight

You lose less money on the nickel machine

The coins still jingle and the bells still ring

You never gotta worry 'bout losing it all

The risk is lower but the payoff's small

There ain't much sense getting carried away

Hoping for a winner on a long shot play

You never had the guts to make a big parlay

So take your twenty dollars and just call it a day

Even though your confidence might be shaken

By taking a pass on the path not taken

The journey is over and he's glad he made good time

The motor seems to be running smooth

But there's something inside that he can't soothe

Can't stop himself from wondering what was waiting on the path not taken

Got a good job and lots of cool stuff

Times being what they are it ought to be enough

Everything's in order, nothing out of place

Everyone around him got a smile on their face

But even though he acts like things are going well

Underneath the surface lies an empty shell

He knows he'll never get another chance to fill it

Pours another drink and tries not to spill it

Falls into a sleep from which he'll soon awaken

Dreaming about walking down the path not taken
