Expressway To Your Heart

Soul Survivors

(Kenny Gamble - Leon Huff)



I've been tryin' to get to you for a long time

Because constantly you been on my mind

I was thinkin' 'bout a shortcut I could take

But it seems like I made a mistake



I was wrong, mmm, I took too long

I got caught in the rush hour

A fellow started to shower

You with love and affection

Now you won't look in my direction



On the expressway to your heart

The expressway is not the best way

At five o'clock it's much too crowded

Much too crowded, so crowded

No room for me (too crowded)

Oh, too crowded



Now there's too many ahead of me

They're all the time gettin' in front of me

I thought I could find a clear road ahead

But I found stoplights instead



I was wrong, baby, I took too long

I got caught in the rush hour

A fellow started to shower

You with love and affection

Come on, look in my direction



On the expressway to your heart

The expressway is not the best way

At five o'clock it's much too crowded

Much too crowded, so crowded

No room for me (too crowded)

Oh, too crowded



Oh, much too crowded

Oh, so crowded [fade] From: Andrew Rogers
