ryan david orr - traffic lights lyrics

and again she shows up
later than she thought she would
knocking reticently soft
as she speaks, she’s trying not to cry
and i help her as she’s shaking her coat off

‘nothing is beautiful’, she said
‘and no one is ever who they seem
i drove around this town for hours
screaming curses at the road
but it’s 10 o’clock, the church is closed
and i stopped and set amongst the flowers.’

[pre-chorus]
and i don’t give a d-mn if they call the cops
they never do anything anyway, anyway
i try to stay on a straight line home
she said ‘do you want to touch me?
you want to be close?
you want to feel something that seems real?’
well i just want to feel whole
i want to be golden, i should go

[chorus]
but it’s alright
i’ll walk home tonight
i’m going to skip all the traffic lights
it’s alright
i’ll walk home tonight
i’m going to skip all the traffic lights

and again i show up, drunk and stumbling
and make my way to the front door
i have always loved more than i have ever shown with my hands
and i can’t give her what she asked for
but she humors me and lets me in
and i said ‘i don’t know where i’ve been
i wandered up and down the highway
stopped at that store across the (deuce?)
and i bought some cigarettes and booze
and the clerk was staring at me sideways.’

[pre-chorus]
and i don’t give a d-mn if they call the cops
they never do anything anyway, anyway
i try to stay on a straight line home
i said ‘do you want to touch me?
you want to be close?
you want to feel something that seems real?’
well i just want to feel whole
i want to be golden, i should go

[chorus]
but it’s alright
i’ll walk home tonight
i’m going to skip all the traffic lights
it’s alright
i’ll walk home tonight
i’m going to skip all the traffic lights

and it’s alright
i’ll walk home tonight
i’m going to skip all the traffic lights
it’s alright
i’ll walk home tonight
