Wrinkle in the Road

[Verse 1]

There's a box filled up with memories beside me on the seat

Of a rusty, wore-out pickup that cranks without a key

An old map on the dashboard, it's wadded up and torn like my soul

Well, this old town I'm leaving now, it's just another wrinkle in the road

[Chorus]

The wheels keep on turning while

The windshield wipers brush away the snow

I wish that they could wipe away these tears

But I've just learned to let 'em roll

I slow down just long enough to find the change to pay another toll

I tell myself that it's alright, it's just another wrinkle in the road

[Verse 2]

She thought she would be the one to make me settle down

And I had lots of faith in her, at least right up 'til now

I believed she was over him, but I found out tonight that that ain't so

One more empty promise put another wrinkle in the road

[Chorus]

The wheels keep on turning while

The windshield wipers brush away the snow

I wish that they could wipe away these tears

But I've just learned to let 'em roll

I slow down just long enough to find the change to pay another toll

I tell myself that it's alright, it's just another wrinkle in the road

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

The wheels keep on turning while

The windshield wipers brush away the snow

Oh, I wish that they could wipe away these tears

But I've learned to let 'em roll

Well, I slow down just long enough to find the change to pay another toll

I tell myself that it's alright, it's just another wrinkle in the road

[Outro]

Yeah, that memory in my rearview now is just another wrinkle in the road
