Wrong Turn

Lyrics: I missed the sign at mile marker nine Had a thousand things running through my mind The highway split and I drifted right Into a road disappearing from sight No map could tell me where I'd gone The radio faded, then moved along A ribbon of asphalt, cracked and worn I never knew I'd taken a wrong turn Chorus One wrong turn, one twist of fate One little choice that made me late I cursed the road and the setting sun Till I saw what I'd become Funny how the lessons burn Sometimes you find yourself On a wrong turn Verse 2 An old café with a flickering light A stranger's smile on a lonely night Stories traded over coffee and rain About dreams that got lost and found again The miles I'd planned were left behind But something better changed my mind What looked like trouble at first concern Became a gift from a wrong turn Chorus One wrong turn, one twist of fate One little choice that made me late I cursed the road and the setting sun Till I saw what I'd become Funny how the lessons burn Sometimes you find yourself On a wrong turn Bridge Maybe there are roads we're meant to miss Maybe every stumble leads to this The winding path, the unexpected view The life you never knew was waiting for you Instrumental Break Final Chorus One wrong turn, one change of plan One chance meeting, one helping hand I thought I'd wandered far too long But every mile pulled me along The heart has ways we never learn Till we follow them down A wrong turn Outro Now when the highway starts to bend I don't rush to know how it ends Somewhere beyond what I can discern Might be another beautiful wrong turn
