Detour Ahead

Smooth road, clear day But why am I the only one Travelin' this way How strange the road you love Should be so easy Can there be a detour ahead Wake up, slow down Before you crash and break your heart Gullible clown You fool, you're headin' In the wrong direction Can't you see the detour ahead The further you travel The harder to unravel The way he spins around you Turn back while there is time Can't you see the danger sign Soft shoulders surround you Smooth road, clear night Oh lucky me, that suddenly I saw the light I'm turning back away From all this trouble Smooth road, smooth road No detour ahead --- Detour Ahead - Billie Holiday
