I miss the taste of a sweeter life I miss the conversation I'm searching for a song tonight I'm changing all of the stations I like to think that we had it all We drew a map to a better place But on that road, I took a fall Oh baby, why did you run away? I was there for you in your darkest times I was there for you in your darkest night But I wonder, where were you? When I was at my worst down on my knees And you said you had my back So I wonder, where were you? When all the roads you took came back to me So I'm following the map that leads to you The map that leads to you Ain't nothing I can do The map that leads to you Following, following, following to you The map that leads to you Ain't nothing I can do The map that leads to you Following, following, following I hear your voice in my sleep at night Hard to resist temptation 'Cause something strange has come over me Now, I can't get over you No, I just can't get over you I was there for you in your darkest times I was there for you in your darkest night But I wonder, where were you? When I was at my worst down on my knees And you said you had my back So I wonder, where were you? When all the roads you took came back to me So I'm following the map that leads to you The map that leads to you Ain't nothing I can do The map that leads to you Following, following, following to you The map that leads to you Ain't nothing I can do The map that leads to you Oh, oh, oh, ah Oh, oh, oh, ah Ye, ye, ye, ah Ah, ah, mmh, ah Oh, I was there for you Oh, in your darkest times Oh, I was there for you Oh, in your darkest night Oh, I was there for you Oh, in your darkest times Oh, I was there for you Oh, in your darkest night But I wonder, where were you? When I was at my worst down on my knees And you said you had my back So I wonder, where were you? When all the roads you took came back to me So I'm following the map that leads to you The map that leads to you Ain't nothing I can do The map that leads to you Following, following, following to you The map that leads to you Ain't nothing I can do The map that leads to you Following, following, following
