EXPRESSWAY TO YOUR HEART

I been try'n to get to you for a long time,
because constantly, you been on my mind.

I was thinkin' about a short cut I could take,
but it seems like I made a mistake.

Well, I was wrong, oh, took too long.
I got caught in the rush hour;

Each fella started to shower
you with love and affection.
Now, you won't look in my direction,

On the expressway to your heart,
that expressway, not the best way.

At five o'clock, it's much too crowded,
you know it's much too crowded, sure crowded,

It's much too crowded,
oh yeah, so so so crowded, crowded.

There's too many ahead of me,
they're all try'n to get in front of me.

I thought that I could find a clear road ahead,
but I found stop lights instead.

I was wrong, baby, it took too long.
I got caught in the rush hour;

Each fella started to shower
you with love and affection.
Come on, look in my direction,

On the expressway to your heart,
that expressway, not the best way.

At five o'clock, it's much too crowded,
much too crowded, so crowded, no room for me.
