Kissing in Traffic

Ruth Theodore

Oh benny bear the soul you cage
there’s barely been a night
i’ve not played a show til late and stayed
awake to watch you drive
so i’m nothing love if not
on your side
through this howling wind that’s travelling
wherever you decide

‘cause i used to live for night life
now there’s nothing quite like
sitting at a red light
caught in your stare
knowing that i’m going nowhere
cause as luck would have it
there’s something magic
about kissing in traffic
so send up a flare
cause i swear we might yeah
we might be getting somewhere

but benny listen to me
i’m still shaking off the mud
from a love that all but buried me
a love that beat me up
but i’ve got nothing love
if not guts
so no howling wind is scaring us
oh come and pick me up

‘cause i used to live for night life
now there’s nothing quite like
sitting at a red light
caught in your stare
knowing that i’m going nowhere
cause as luck would have it
there’s something magic
about kissing in traffic
so send up a flare
cause i swear we might yeah
we might be getting somewhere



‘cause ounce for ounce
it’s the best seat in the house
so pick me up pick me up
yeah and i’ll give it up
sadness can eat my dust
eat my dust eat my dust

Oh benny bear the soul you cage
there’s barely been a night
i’ve not played a show til late and stayed
awake to watch you drive

yeah cause ounce for ounce
it’s the best seat in the house
so pick me up pick me up
yeah and i’ll give it up
sadness can eat my dust
eat my dust eat my dust
