The High Road

I won't be a victim

A begger or a fool

And I try to live

By the golden rule

If you don't love me

What am I gonna do

I'll just take the high road

And walk away from you

I'll find an angel

To lift me up in time

I'll listen for the voice

That speaks my bitter mind

I'll try to forgive myself

For not heeding the signs

And I'll take the high road

And walk away one last time

I'll wipe away the tears

And take credit for tried

I'll look inside myself

For the part that was mine

I won’t try to hurt you back

Or say I never cared

I'll just take the high road

And walk away from here

My heart is battered

My soul is bruised

My face is wearing that smile I used

I'll put my anger under lock and key

And I'll take the high road

And walk away quietly

I'll pack up my pride

And go somewhere far

Cause you can't blame someone

For who they are

But you know that what you've done

It ain’t fair

I'm not gonna to find about something

Just ain’t there

I'll walk away with my head

Held high

Forgiven and forget

No baby not this time

I'll just look for the angel

And I'll be fine

I'll take the high road

And walk away one last time
