The Rocks

Honey don't go down that road, that way lie the rocks You don't want to end up on the shore It's the sea you hear roaring not the haven or the docks Please don't go down that road no more You think one more glass of wine won't go to your head Taking out more than you earn won't put you in the red If you're not running from your devils you're taking them to bed Please don't go down that road no more Honey don't go down that road the tide is on the turn Caught between the water and the strand There's no path left to follow on driftwood there to burn Find yourself a steady place to stand You think one more glass of wine won't go to your head Taking out more than you earn won't put you in the red If you're not running from your devils you're taking them to bed Please don't go down that road no more Honey don't go down that road you know that you react To each hook and line and feather that you cast Stop reaching for the same old bait spring that old trap It's time to learn the patterns of the past You slammed the door behind you stop crying to get in You're looking for directions just how do I begin? Write down your own number remember your own pin Oh don't go down that road no more So try and trust the judgement of those that know you best Don't rely on instinct you really don't possess Buy yourself a map and compass let reason do the rest Oh don't go down that road no more If you won't learn what's this journey for? C' mon brace yourself, I'm opening up this door
