Love Is A Two-Way Street (And She's Makin' A Lane Change)

(album: Are You Sincere - 1979)

Ah you saw it in her eyes when she spoke about some stranger
It took you by surprise and you knew you were in danger
You saw that loving fire that she had for you long ago
But not anymore ah and it hurts you to know

Now if you feel like you could die she wants to live forever
It's tearing apart your life it's pulling hers together
Tonight you'll be all alone while she'll be out on the town
But not with you and you're wondering with who

Love is a two way street and she's making a lane change
Taking the green light to someone you don't even know his name
Watching her tail lights pull outta sight down some lover's lane
Sitting at home all alone with your pride and your shame
Hating yourself for praying she'll come back again

Well you know you oughta pack your bags let her to come home to nothing
But nothing's all she's had that's why she's out there running
You're loving her too much to quit
But not enough to take hold or even let go ah so there you sit

Love is a two way street and she's making a lane change
Taking the green light to someone you don't even know his name
Watching her tail lights pull outta sight down some lover's lane
Sitting at home all alone with your pride and your shame
Hating yourself for praying she'll come back again
