DETOURS

 

Detours.mp3

 

 

When you find you're on a dead end highway

And you're not exactly where you want to be

Do you stop at the end and wait for progress

When you know this is not your destiny

 

When your fuel gage is setting on empty

And you're running your engine to the ground

Do you wait for someone to build that highway

Or do you back up and go around

 

Life is a road

A road with many detours

Stairways are scattered throughout time

Sometimes you have to back away to move ahead

unh hunh, How far you get is how far you climb

 

 

When you find you're on an elevator

That's designed to stop on every other floor

Do you ride on in hopes to find the middle

Do you know that you'll find an open door

 

When your ups and your downs run in circles

And you're not sure if anybody cares

Do you try to redesign the elevator

Or do you get out and climb the stairs

 

 

(chorus repeat)
