Lyrics John Martyn

John Martyn

Traffic-Light Lady

All we had between us was a secret

Kept for just us two, for just us now

If you don’t know anybody else’s secret

I’ll pick you up and we’ll go rolling now.

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes

Amber, green and red surprise

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes on me

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes on me.

Won’t you tell me about the things that are you

Won’t you tell me about your baby too

Tell me about the things you do together

And tell me about the things that we could do.

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes

Amber, green and red surprise

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes on me

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes on me.

All we had between us was a secret

Kept for just us two, for just us now

If you don’t know nobody else’s secret

I’ll pick you up and we’ll go rolling now.

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes

Amber, green and red surprise

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes on me

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes on me

Traffic light lady, turn your eyes on me.
