Green Lights Songtext
von Blackbird

A fortune teller with a name I don′t remember
She said, "Were you born in May? Or maybe September?
Honey, don't you wanna know what your stars are tellin′?"
And I said, "Please, please, won't you tell me?"

She gave me something I didn't know I needed
It took a walk down the street to realize I stopped dreaming
I gave her all my cash and I walked around the corner
Sipping on my old coffee and thinkin′ it all over

I′ve been stuck in this apartment
Summer's flyin′ by
No use wishin' things were different
Sitting here inside

Oh, oh-oh
That car ain′t gonna go, no-no
Unless I push the pedal down
You see, green lights are all around


Call me crazy, an optimist maybe
Well, I tried it the other way, and where did it get me?
If you keep doing what you do
You keep getting what you get
Over and over and over again

No use wishin' things were different
Sitting here inside

Oh, oh-oh
That car ain′t gonna go, no-no
Unless I push the pedal down
You see, green lights are all around
(Let's go)

Oh, oh-oh
That car ain't gonna go, no-no
Unless I push the pedal down
You see, green lights are all around

Oh, oh-oh
That car ain′t gonna go, no-no
Unless I push the pedal down
You see, green lights
