Lyrics
Red Light, Green Light, Go
I'm watching red lights
As they're fadin'
On the plane she is takin'
Feeling so forsaken
Standing alone
With all the hopes
We were floatin'
On the ground now
Crushed and broken
And the sorrys, left unspoken
To never be known
Red Light, Green Light, Go
Reaching out for the comfort of another soul
Reaching out from a feeling that I've often known
All I want is a lover who will share the road
Better get used to it
Speak from the truth of it
Stop watching red lights as they're fadin'
On the plane she is takin'
Feeling so forsaken
Standing alone
With all the hopes
We were floatin'
On the ground now
Crushed and broken
And the sorrys, left unspoken
To never be known
Red Light, Green light, Go
Into the arms and the charms of another love
Someone new who may finally turn out to be enough for me
See the man, understand, what he's all about
Take my hand, no demands
Only living in harmony
Loving me honestly
Not watching red lights as they're fadin'
On the planes they keep takin'
Feeling so forsaken
Standing alone
With all the hopes
We were floatin'
On the ground now
Crushed and broken
And the sorrys, left unspoken
To never be known
Red Light, Green light, Go
