Lyrics for One Way Street
There's a troubled man, confused within Stumbling in darkness because of sin Slipping and tripping with somebody else's love Taking bitter with the sweet Traveling the wrong way on a one way street There's a sad heart all wrecked with pain Look at the sad face, filled with shame Walking on troubled ground where I don't belong Taking bitter with the sweet Traveling the wrong way on a one way street You know it's wrong, this way of living Sometimes you have to take less than what you're giving But right now I'm satisfied taking bitter with the sweet Traveling the wrong way on a one way street Traveling the wrong way on a one way street Walking the wrong way on a one way street Slipping and tripping with somebody else's love Taking bitter with the sweet Traveling the wrong, wrong, wrong Wrong, wrong way on a one way street Wrong way on a one way street I walk in the wrong way where I don't belong Slipping in darkness on a one way street The wrong way where I don't belong
