Traffic jam on a busy lane
Like a clot in a deep blue vein
A thousand powers conspire
Against the forces of desire
Battles once won are lost
My heart’s missing, forever gone
The noise, the lights, and the smoke
Can’t stop these thoughts of love
Darkness closes behind me
As night swallows twilight
Every turn of the wheel
Takes me closer to a love that’s real
I get that feeling – a kind of rush
I’m coming home to you – to us!
