55 south

mike swanberg

You find yourself in love
The way travelers must find themselves
In Duluth, or on 55 south headed away
From the airport.

You tell yourself,
somewhere I made the wrong decision.
And now how many miles
Until I can turn this thing around

so you do what everyone does.

you sing along to the song playing,
You drum your hands on the steering wheel
And you wait for the next sign to say
What you probably should have known
all along
