Lyrics
Traffic Jam
©2008 Louise d. MacLellan-Ruf
Driving down the highway looking for my turn
Wondering how much rubber left to burn?
Looking for the future I dreamed in my head.
Looking for a sign around the bend.
Is it one more drunken dream?
One more hurting heart
One more for the road before I start
One hand on the wheel, liquid courage by my side
Can't hide the fact my fears won't decide
What I do or who I am or where I'm bound to be
When my life's a traffic jam
When my life's a traffic jam
Traffic jam.
Looking through the windshield break lights up ahead
Turn around hit reverse instead
Changing my direction changes me
When my life's a traffic jam.
When my life's a traffic Jam
Traffic jam.
Do I stay when my life's a traffic jam?
Hit the curb when my life's a traffic jam?
Take the detour when my life's a traffic jam?
Traffic jam. Traffic jam.
Is it one more drunken dream?
One more hurting heart
One more for the road before I start
