If I was a preacher, I would kneel and say a prayer
If I was a gambler I would save myself for you
If I was a hunter I would stay at home with you
If I was a soldier, I would give you all my guns..

I've gotta go because I love you..
The road we took was just in vain
But can't you feel it getting colder
Our love came with a little pain..

If I ever hunger, i'd write you poems for my food
But if I was a teacher d'you know I'd say we wrote the book

I've gotta go because I love you..
The road we took was just in vain..
Where every path I take leads to you
And [bad word] paved with a little pain
My love I'd take that same road again
Although it's paved with a little pain...
