The place I lay my head tonight
Ain’t the place I want to be
I know by leaving you 
I’d cut you where it bleeds
I don’t want to be the kind of man
That puts sad tears in your eyes
But the thing for me to do now
Is wake u from these lies

You’re alright as long as you’re by my side
And I can’t keep holding on

‘cause i’m the crossroad man
waiting for the lights to change
crossroad man
playing but it ain’t my game
crossroad man 
waiting for the lights to change

I know you’re staying low now
I know that I do to
It’s taking you a thousand miles
To get away to something new
You can get so far 
And never get nowhere
Climb your blue hill
And find another there

You’re allright as long as your by my side
And I can’t keep holding on

‘cause i’m the crossroad man
waiting for the lights to change
crossroad man
playing but it ain’t my game
crossroad man 
waiting for the lights to change

and when they change i won’t let nothing stop me
it will come in waves
it will be just like a dam that’s broken
it will come in waves
