Motorway

Foreign names, neon lights
Changing lanes in my mind
Passing towns we don't know
Heading for the unknown
All our friends left behind
They're not even on my mind
They have lives, they have plans
They could never understand

Meet me on the motorway
Together we can make our great escape
Meet me on the motorway
Maybe we can find our perfect place
We can drive away
We can drive away
Meet me on the motorway
It's just me and you
It's just me and you

Getting late, coffee's cold
Heavy eyes, on the road
We won't stop, no we won't break
Shadows hide, overtake
The small town we left behind
We won't drown, we won't hide
A new life, a new plan
They would never understand

Meet me on the motorway
Together we can make our great escape
Meet me on the motorway
Maybe we can find our perfect place
We can drive away
We can drive away
Meet me on the motorway
It's just me and you
It's just me and you

We won't look back, so don't look back
We won't look back

Meet me on the motorway
Together we can make our great escape
Meet me on the motorway
Maybe we can find our perfect place
We can drive away
We can drive away
Meet me on the motorway
It's just me and you
It's just me and you

Heavy Traffic

Everybody's been a long time talking
Ain't nobody said a word that's true
Ain't it time to stop this crap type talking
Won't you tell us what you're gonna do

Tell you what, why don't we break this pattern?
Tell you what, why don't we do some do?
All together we can make it happen
Untogether and we won't get through

Wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive but I can't get nowhere
Heavy traffic all over this town
I wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive, I gotta get somewhere
Heavy traffic is bringing me down.

Every time I see the red light burning
Don't it always make the air turn blue
But until we see the red light turning
There ain't nothing anyone can do

We all dream about an open highway
Making dreams is all that we can do
We'd be moving on if I had my way
Nothing can stop me getting back to you

Wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive but I can't get nowhere
Heavy traffic all over this town
I wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive, I gotta get somewhere
Heavy traffic coming into this town

I wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive but I can't get nowhere
Heavy traffic all over this town
I wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive, I gotta get somewhere
Heavy traffic is bringing me down
Heavy traffic all over this town

Heavy traffic all over this town

Heavy traffic coming into this town
