O Traffic Lady

O traffic lady, O traffic lady
handling those traffic lights
I saw you for the first time today
I see you in your formal blue tights
and the white shirt
makes you a blessing to watch
while I wait for your touch
to turn the red to green
for that very moment it seems
is when i feel the pain
of heartbreak and redeem.

O traffic lady, O traffic lady
I saw you again this morning
but alas the light was already turned in
I couldn't believe my luck
that today I'd miss the stop,
as i zoomed past your direction
I imagined I was offered
a glance of affection,
I wonder now if you'd be there

tomorrow and the next day and the next day

O traffic Lady, O traffic lady
My heart stuttered to a stop
when I saw the traffic mob
I wondered if you'd be there
to relieve me of my despair,
and then i saw what seems
to be a lesser gleam
of the presence I used to view
as I now approached nearer
I found you missing amongst the crew

O traffic lady, O traffic lady
I have learned a valuable lesson
Heartbreaks and desires
are a daily dose of life
one chooses to find an outlet
in any form or strife
what doesn't kill you makes you stronger
but please next time don't make me stop for longer ;)
