Traffic Lights Lyrics

I, haven't been to your grave

In a couple of years

I hope you don't mind

Cause I, can't see you there

You're in the in the morning sun

And the silent nights

In burning cigarettes

And amber lights

When I couldn't sleep

Down on my knees and prayed

At seven am

Only 14

Now I'm

Crying in the kitchen to your favourite song

Haven't heard that record in way too long

Barefoot on the tiles whispering to myself

Your picture in the corner on the crooked shelf

Tripping over tears in at the traffic lights

Cheap sunglasses over burning eyes

Won't bring myself to twist the radio dial

Driving through the memories for miles and miles

And I, wrote a couple of songs

That you'll never hear

So who's it all for

And we, built a little home

That you'll never see

So I'll shut the door

A string of beads like water

Running through my hands

The day you left

Gone, no long exchange

I didn't even know

Till I saw her crying on the front porch steps

Now I'm

Crying in the kitchen to your favourite song

Haven't heard that record in way too long

Barefoot on the tiles whispering to myself

Your picture in the corner on the crooked shelf

Tripping over tears at the traffic lights

Cheap sunglasses over burning eyes

Won't bring myself to twist the radio dial

Driving through the memories for miles and miles

And I can't recall

Everyone that I saw at the wake

But I could count every day that I've lived since I last saw your face

Now I'm

Crying in the kitchen to your favourite song

Haven't heard that record in way too long

Barefoot on the tiles whispering to myself

Your picture in the corner on the crooked shelf

Tripping over tears at the traffic lights

Cheap sunglasses over burning eyes

Won't bring myself to twist the radio dial

Driving through the memories for miles and miles

Now I'm crying in the kitchen to your favourite song
