Every Red Light

I’m driving, It’s raining, I’m waiting
The stop light is shining on the water
In the gutter on the street
And the traffic is so thick, I’m so sick
Of driving for a second then stopping
I could be walking faster than this

The signs say I’m not too far
From the place where it all fell apart

I hit every red light
On my way to your place tonight
I was stuck behind the slowest car
All I want to be is where you are
I hit every red light

I can taste you, as I race to you, to kiss you
I hate how it ended before I left
There was something I wanted to say
But I’m afraid, I’ll be too late, I should have stayed
Chances are you’ve already locked the door
Turned in your keys
Well this is not the way that I wanted to leave it

Only this would happen to me now
Why now?

I hit every red light
On my way to your place tonight
I was stuck behind the slowest car
All I want to be is where you are

Caught up in the stop-and-go
There’s only one thing I know
While I’m stranded here inside my car
All I want to be is where you are

Well. you’re not answering your phone
I guess I should have known you’d be long gone by now
I was half way out of town when I realized
I can’t leave without putting up a fight

I’m driving, It’s raining, I’m waiting

I hit every red light
On my way to your place tonight
I was stuck behind the slowest car
All I want to be is where you are

Caught up in the stop-and-go
There’s only one thing I know
While I’m stranded here inside my car
All I want to be is where you are

It’s where I want to be
It’s where I want to be
I hit every red light
I hit every red light
I hit every red light
I hit every red light
