Two Roads, One Heart

[Verse 1]
You left your jacket on my chair
Said you could call me anywhere
I kept the promise, kept the door
Kept giving till I had no more

You took the turn that felt like home
I took the road that led alone
Now every mile I gave away
Has brought me to this split today

[Pre-Chorus]
One sign says stay and make it right
One points toward a quieter life
I know your hurt, I know your name
But love can't mean I lose my shape

[Chorus]
At the fork where the two roads divide
I can love you and still choose my side
I gave my heart with both hands wide
Now I need one hand to guide my life

If I turn back, will I disappear?
If I walk on, will I leave you here?
I gave too freely, I know that is true
But which road lets me still be me and love you?

[Verse 2]
I learned your weather, wore your storms
Made every sharp edge sound like warmth
I moved my plans to make you space
Then couldn't find my own front gate

You never asked me to be small
I just kept answering every call
Now silence holds the question still:
Is this devotion, or my will?

[Pre-Chorus]
One sign says wait until you know
One says the truth is in the road
I know your hurt, I know my part
But I can't steer with only your heart

[Chorus]
At the fork where the two roads divide
I can love you and still choose my side
I gave my heart with both hands wide
Now I need one hand to guide my life

If I turn back, will I disappear?
If I walk on, will I leave you here?
I gave too freely, I know that is true
But which road lets me still be me and love you?

[Bridge]
Maybe the answer isn't leaving
Maybe it isn't staying, either
Maybe love can meet me halfway
Without asking me to vanish

I don't want a map that says
Your needs are all that matter
I want a road with room for both
And ground that doesn't shatter

[Group Chant]
Both hearts! Both names!
Both feet on the ground!
No more giving myself away
Just to keep you around!

[Final Chorus]
At the fork where the two roads divide
I can love you and still choose my side
I gave my heart with both hands wide
Now I take one hand and guide my life

If I turn back, let me come back whole
If I walk on, let me keep my soul
I gave too freely, but I still can choose
A road where loving you won't mean I lose

[Outro]
I won't call my boundary goodbye
I won't call my leaving a lie
Two roads, one heart, and a breath to begin
I can love you without losing me again
