tension in a couple, pushing and pulling and yearning for freedom

lyrics

Detour
©1997 Alice Bierhorst/BMI

DETOUR
Rough road
Danger up ahead
Left right stop light
Danger up ahead
You get out first
You get out first
It's your turn
You get out first
You get out first
It's your turn

DETOUR
Rough road
Danger up ahead
Left right switch bad
Danger up ahead
You get out first
You get out first
It's your turn
You get out first
You get out first
It's your turn

And I try, oh, how I try
To reach the sky

CHORUS
If you love me
You'll let me go
If you love me
You'll let me go
If you love me
You'll let me fly away
I'll fly away

And I try, oh, how I try
To reach the sky

CHORUS
CHORUS
