The last thing I expected was for you to walk into my life.
I never would've imagined it, never would've imagined it.
I shrugged you off like nothing at first, I didn't even care.
I shouldn't get into this, shouldn't get into this.
So I take a little detour, go down a different road
Take the path less chosen, forget about that heavy load
Keep my eyes set forward, I can never try to look back
Never turning or stopping, never getting off track.
I hesitated at first, but you somehow let yourself in.
I didn't push you back out, didn't push you back out.
You're more than I expected, and everything felt right.
I don't feel anymore doubt, don't feel anymore doubt.
So I take a little detour, go down a different road
Take the path less chosen, forget about that heavy load
Keep my eyes set forward, I can never try to look back
Never turning or stopping, never getting off track
You had to go away, but that isn't going to change things.
I know that we're both strong, know that we're both strong.
Every chance I get, I'll make plans to come see you.
I won't make the absence long, won't make the absence long.
So I take a little detour, go down a different road
Take the path less chosen, forget about that heavy load
Keep my eyes set forward, I can never try to look back
Never turning or stopping, never getting off track.
I'm coming to see you soon and I can already feel your kiss.
I can't wait until I hold you, can't wait until I hold you.
I'll travel the 560 miles, I don't care that roads are closed.
I can find my way to you, find my way to you.
So I take a little detour, go down a different road
Take the path less chosen, forget about that heavy load.
Keep my eyes set forward, I can never try to look back
Never turning or stopping, never getting off track.
I felt so much compassion, drowning in a sea of love
I'm so glad that I'm here, so glad that I'm here.
Everything inside feels light, enchanted by your soul
"I love you" lingers in my ear, "I love you" lingers in my ear.
So I take a little detour, go down a different road
Take the path less chosen, forget about that heavy load.
Keep my eyes set forward, I can never try to look back
Never turning or stopping, never getting off track.
You took it all away without warning, I didn't see it coming.
I feel my chest start throbbing, feel my chest start throbbing.
I can't let you go like this, I've already let you in too far.
My heart just won't stop sobbing, heart just won't stop sobbing.
So I take a little detour, go down a different road
Take the path most chosen, carry that heavy load.
Can't keep my eyes set forward, I keep trying to look back.
Always turning and stopping, always getting off track.
And I'll never trust these roads again.
