Way Up Ahead

Buy the Album

Three songs on this album have similar somber, bluesy, folk forms. The chorus to this song is eloquent in its counterpoint. Positive, yet dark, it is the most hopeful song on the album.

Way Up Ahead

I said I was coming back.
I’d see you in a little while.
Now I’m driving round the city
thinkin’ bout the way you smile.

I see a red light
and a green light.
It’s all right here
up ahead.

I see a street sign
and a straight line,
and it’s all mine,
it’s alright
way up ahead.

Come away with me,
get yourself a little rest.
You got a billion troubles.
Baby this ain’t a test.
If it’s love or the red light,
I’ll love you just the same.
If it’s all or nothing,
both of us get the blame.

I see a red light
and a green light,
but it’s alright
way up ahead.
