Lyrics
Traffic
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
did you get all that you wanted?
then did you give it all away?
did we take it all for granted?
we`d really love for you to stay
yes we would
now the world is very old
and the sky is very high
and we`re just traffic in between
you and i
and if i knew my way
well i`d be there
now wouldn`t i?
don`t you know it only gets louder
when you cut off your ear
do you know how good it gets?
are revelations all you need?
did you smash your brand new birdland?
was it too much speed?
now the world is very old
and the sky is very high
and we`re just traffic in between
you and i
and if i knew my way
well i`d be there
now wouldn`t i?
