[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Smooth road, clear day
But why am I the only one travelling this way?
How strange the road to love can be so easy
Can't you see the detour ahead?
[Verse 2]
Wake up, slow down
Before you fall and break your heart, gullible clown
You fool, you're headed in the wrong direction
Can't you see the detour ahead?
[Bridge]
Farther, farther, you travel
The harder to unravel
The way she spins around you
Wake up, wake up while there's time
Can't you see the danger sign?
Soft shoulders surround you
[Verse 3]
Smooth road, clear night
Oh, lucky me that suddenly I saw the light
I'm getting back away from all that trouble
Smooth road, smooth road, there's no detour ahead
[Outro]
