《The High Road》歌词

[00:00:00] The High Road - Bettye Lavette

[00:00:19] I won't be a victim

[00:00:23] A beggar

[00:00:24] A fool

[00:00:28] I try belive my life

[00:00:32] By the golden rule

[00:00:37] If you don't love me

[00:00:41] What am I supposed to do

[00:00:45] I'll take the high road

[00:00:49] Walk on away from you

[00:00:59] I'll find me an angel

[00:01:03] To lift me up in time

[00:01:08] I'll listen for the voice

[00:01:12] Which speaks my bitter mind

[00:01:17] I'll try to forgive myself

[00:01:21] For not heeding all the signs

[00:01:26] Oh I'll take the high road

[00:01:30] And walk away one last time

[00:01:37] I'll wipe away the tears

[00:01:40] 'Cause I know darn well I've tried

[00:01:46] I'll look inside myself

[00:01:49] For the part that was mine

[00:01:54] I ain't gonna try to hurt ya back

[00:01:58] Or lie and say

[00:02:00] I didn't care

[00:02:03] I'll just take the high road

[00:02:07] And walk away from here

[00:02:11] My heart is battered

[00:02:15] My soul is bruised

[00:02:20] My face is wearing that same false smile

[00:02:26] I used to use

[00:02:30] I put my feelings

[00:02:33] Under lock and key

[00:02:37] Oh and take the high road

[00:02:41] And walk on away quietly

[00:02:54] I'll pack up my pride

[00:02:58] And go somewhere far

[00:03:02] You can't blame somebody

[00:03:07] For who they really are

[00:03:11] But what you've done to me

[00:03:14] You know it just ain't fair

[00:03:19] I ain't gonna b**ch about it

[00:03:23] 'cause I know sure well

[00:03:25] It just ain't there

[00:03:28] I'll walk away

[00:03:31] With my head held high

[00:03:36] Forgive and forget

[00:03:39] Uhuh daddy

[00:03:41] Not this time

[00:03:45] I'll keep looking for my angel

[00:03:49] And I know I'll be just fine

[00:03:54] Oh stayin on the high road

[00:03:58] And walking away one last time

[00:04:08] Uhohh
