i hope you hit traffic

you want to leave

you want to find yourself

but you don't want to do that with me

you want to drive

you want to feel the breeze

between your fingers and the trees

and you don't know where you're going

you get in the car and you hit the road

and though i still love you

i want you to know

i hope you hit traffic

the magic gets lost and the wind sits still

i hope it's a static erratic drive

and you're slamming on the wheel

you get angry and graphic

and i hope you hit traffic

you want to fly

you want to spread your wings

and you got a hundred more cliches

you think the road holds the truth

and no ones gunna get in your way

and you don't care where you're going

you let the car decide when you hit the road

though i still love you

i want you to know

i hope you hit traffic

the magic gets lost and the wind sits still

i hope it's a static erratic drive

and you're slamming on the wheel

you get angry and graphic

and i hope you hit traffic

you turn the radio up loud

but no station is clear

then a crackle from a cloud

and the rain is soon here

could the car break down?

could it be a sign?

i wish you would

i really think you should

but if you can't be mine

i hope you hit traffic

the magic is lost and the wind sits still

and i hope it's a static erratic drive

and you're slamming on the wheel

na na na na na na na na na na

na na na na na na na na na na

na na na na na na na na na na

i hope you hit traffic

the magic is lost and the wind sits still

and i hope it's a static erratic drive

and you're slamming on the wheel

you get angry and graphic

and i hope you hit traffic
