lyrics
Wrong Way Down A One Way Road
chorus:
Wrong way down a one way road
They say love ‘s a dangerous curve but I couldn’t let go
I should have yielded to my thinking brain
but my heart beat faster in the passing lane
I went the wrong way down a one way road
Have you ever lost your mind when you lost your heart?
Taking crazy chances from the very start
Well, the girl drove me like a brand new car
And when the new wore off
She rode off with my heart
chorus:
Wrong way down a one way road
They say love ‘s a dangerous curve but I couldn’t let go
I should have yielded to my thinking brain
but my heart beat faster in the passing lane
I went the wrong way down a one way road
Well, the signs were all around
But I didn’t want to read ‘em
And there was something dark and deadly when she called me “sweetums”
The road was rough, the bridge was out
My friends all said “you better watch out”
“She’ll wreck your heart and drive you insane”
chorus:
Wrong way down a one way road
They say love ‘s a dangerous curve but I couldn’t let go
I should have yielded to my thinking brain
but my heart beat faster in the passing lane
I went the wrong way down a one way road
