Since you've been away I've been down and lonely
Since you've been away I've been thinking of you
Trying to understand the reason you left me
What were you going through?
I'm missing you
Tell me why the road turns
I'm missing you
Tell me why the road turns
As I look around, I see things that remind me
Just to see you smile made my heart fill with joy
I'll still recall all those dreams we shared together
Where did you run to, boy?
I'm missing you
Tell me why the road turns
I'm missing you
Tell me why the road turns
Sometimes I've wondered, I didn't understand
Just where you were trying to go
Only you knew the plan
And I tried to be there but you wouldn't let me in
But now you've gone away boy
I feel so broken hearted
I knew the day we started
That we were meant to be if only you'd let me...
I've cried so many tears
Gotta face now all my fears
We let time slip away
I need you boy, here today!....
There was so much you gave me, to my heart
To my soul
There was so much of your dreams
That were never told
You had so much hope
For a brighter day
Why were you my flower
Plucked away
Tell me why the road turns
I'm missing you
Tell me why the road turns ( tell me why the road turns) tell me ... tell me...why?
Tell me why the road turns?
