Just like footprints in the snow
Who knows where my heart will go
Will it lead me to you
Or will I see another empty day

Seasons come and quickly go
Kinda makes me wonder if they know
Why my heart keeps running near and far
If only they could tell me where you are

If you’ve ever been in love
Then you’ll know the rocky road
I’ve been speaking of
You’ll remember when the times were good
And the times you had to do without
Think carefully my friend
It may look like a start but it could be the end

Well, I’m not trying to bring you down
I’m just so tired of hanging around
I won’t make the same mistake again

If you’ve ever been in love
Then you’ll know the rocky road
I’ve been speaking of
You’ll remember when the times were good
And the times you had to do without

Think carefully my friend
It may look like a start but it could be the end
Think carefully my friend
It may look like a start but it could be the end
Ooh, think carefully my friend
