Gotta See Jane Lyrics By R Dean Taylor

    red light green light
    speedin’ through the dark night
    drivin’ through the poundin’ rain
    i gotta see jane

    windshield wiper splashin’
    splashin’ callin’ out her name
    just gotta see jane
    i left her arms to find my way

    to find a place for me in the world outside
    i wasn’t alive i could not survive
    the frantic pace the constant chase
    to win the race turned my heart cold inside

    i gotta find what i left behind
    red light green light
    speedin’ through the dark night
    drivin’ through the poundin’ rain
    i gotta see jane

    freeway byway
    earin’ up the highway
    runnin’ up a world insane
    just gotta see jane

    a town of steel that isn’t real
    it could not feel what’s in the heart of me
    i was so alone in a world of stone
    i missed her arms that once held me
    that made me see i was the lonely one
    but now and then i was runnin’ scared
    and i could feel the touch of time
    turnin’ the wheel of life to yesterday
    when love and happiness were mine
    i gotta find that world of jane and me
    liked it used to be

    oh i gotta see jane
    her love for me i pushed aside
    walked out alone
    to face a world turned cold

    although i tried i could not survive
    the frantic pace the constant chase
    to win the race it’s not a part of me
    i’ve gotta find what i left behind

    oh i gotta see jane i gotta see jane
