You're in need of some direction
There's a place where you should go
There's a bright spot on the dark side of a long and winding road

You're in need of some kind of answers
There's a few I used to know
You're in need of some direction
You should've asked me, a long time ago

No manual, no right or wrong
Learn the lay of the land as you go along

And I don't know where you're going
And I don't care where you've been
But I'm headin' your direction again

You can watch an execution
You can sit there in the stands
There'll be no one there to comfort you and no one to hold your hand
You're in need of some affection
There's someone you should know
If you need someone to call ya
You should've called me, a long time ago

And I don't know where I'm going
But I know just where I've been
And I'm headin' your direction again

There's a riot on the south side
There's a parade moving slow
Take the interstate just north of here to avoid the rain and snow
You're in need of some information
There's a tourist booth you know
It was put there by the government
And they'll tell ya, tell ya where to go

And I don't know where you're going
But I know just where you've been
And I'm heading your direction again

Should've asked me, 'long time ago
