Lyrics
Smooth road, clear day
But why am I the only one travelin' this way
How strange, the road to love should be so easy
Could there be a detour ahead?
Wake up, slow down
Before you crash and break your heart, gullible clown
You fool, you're headed in the wrong direction
Can't you see the detour ahead?
The further you travel, the harder to unravel
The web she spins around you
Turn back while there's time
Can't you see the danger sign?
Soft shoulders surround you
Smooth road, clear night
Oh, lucky me, that suddenly I saw the light
I'm turning back away from all that trouble
Smooth road, smooth road
No detour ahead
The further you travel, the harder to unravel
The web she spins around you
Turn back while there's time
Don't you see the danger sign?
Soft shoulders surround you
Smooth road, clear night
Oh, lucky me, that suddenly I saw the light
I'm turning back away from all that trouble
Smooth road, smooth road
No detour ahead
Smooth road, smooth road
No detour ahead
