Lyrics
Pick up your coat walk out of the door
Try to figure out what you're looking for
It seems that all the lights are red tonight
You're looking for a sign in the sky
You're wondering how when or why
Everything will work out for you
But if you close your eyes
And put all of your cares aside
I know everything will work out fine
But you can't live your life by traffic lights
Waiting for a sign to make things right
No you can't live your life by traffic lights
So if you walk away and leave it 'til another day
I know everything will work out fine
Walking round with your head in the clouds
Looking for a face in the crowd
Someone who can make things clearer
And all the thoughts going round in your head
The things you did, the things that you said
And how is it all gonna work out now
But if you close your eyes and put all of your cares aside
I know everything will work out fine
But you can't live your life by traffic lights
Waiting for a sign to make things right
No you can't live your life by traffic lights
So if you walk away and leave it 'til another day
I know everything will work out fine
