Please Turn Green Lyrics

I heard you found somebody else
But I hadn't seen it for myself
It ain't been problem, not thinkin' often 'bout you
We called it quits, I put it in my rearview
One light away, on my way back home
Thought I was done movin' on

But then you both pulled up, I haven't seen you in weeks
I had to watch you look at him like you used to look at me
Bet you just left a party and nobody saw you leave
Like we used to, in the red of summer
Now we're both stopped in the same place at 11:23
Prayin' that this light would just, please, please turn green
Just please, turn green

We used to love when it'd turned red
So I could lean to my right side and kiss your lips
Now I'm here in the car and half my heart is to my left
Never thought that I'd have to watch you doin' that with him

But then you both pulled up, I haven't seen you in weeks
I had to watch you look at him like you used to look at me
Bet you just left a party and nobody saw you leave
Like we used to, in the red of summer
Now we're both stopped in the same place at 11:23
Prayin' that this light would just, please, please turn green
Just please, turn

Even if when I close my eyes, you're still in the picture
Even if I run this light, can't outrun the missin' you
Thought I had you out my mind

But then you both pulled up, I haven't seen you in weeks
I had to watch you look at him like you used to look at me
Bet you just left a party and nobody saw you leave
Like we used to, in the red of summer
Now we're both stopped in the same place at 11:23
Prayin' that this light would just, please, please turn green
Just please, turn green
