The red lights don't understand
I have somewhere to be
And if only they could see
then maybe they'd let me go
Wait a bit longer
And I'll be there
With your sweatshirt
And some Kleenex for me
You don't have to tell me twice
You don't have to tell me three times
We'll just have to wait and see
Oh maybe it was meant to be
The sunlight in my rearview mirror
Tells me I'm closer to you
All signs tell me I will make it
You can too
Please
just wait a bit longer
I will be there
With a blanket for two
And some change I owe you
I know my rights from lefts, but do I know my rights from wrongs?
Why do I always feel the need to ride along, ride along
You don't have to tell me twice
You don't have to tell me three times
We'll just have to wait and see
Oh maybe it was meant to be
I know my rights from lefts, but do I know my rights from wrongs?
Why do I always feel the need to ride along, ride along
Signs fly by and minutes pass
Soon I will be there at last
And you will see the truth
once and for all
Please don't tell me twice
Please don't tell me anymore
Just you wait and see
Oh maybe it was meant to be
Tolls cost less than idol love
Burdens we have all spoke of
Time races, and so do I
Others' problems pass me by
But just you
Wait one second longer
I will be there
With some words you need to hear
I said
Please
Just you wait a moment longer
I will be there, be there, be there
Don't you let me
Hear you cry out loud
Just you wait and see wait and see
Wait and see, wait and see
Oh baby was it meant to be?
