I knew long before you told me
You told me you'd be leaving this place
I'd never see your face again
That's why I can't forget the last time
The last time you tried to explain
Things would never be the same again
Sometimes, sometimes I wonder why I
I wonder why I couldn't conceal feelings
I've been dealing with
Cause you knew that I knew
Long before you told me
You told me you'd be leaving this place
I'd never see your face again
No matter where the wind blows
We gotta take a stand
We're heading for the crossroads
We gotta shake hands
I know, I know you never had a notion
I've always refrained
From showing you the pain I'm in
Remember when you went away
It must have been a cloudy day
You called me on the telephone
You sounded so alone
You said you had to make a choice
I'd never hear your voice again
No matter where the wind blows
We gotta take a stand
We're heading for the crossroads
We gotta shake hands
And so it goes, time after time
And although it won't show
You're always on my mind
No matter where the wind blows
We gotta take a stand
We're heading for the crossroads
We gotta shake hands
