Wrinkle in the Road

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

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 all right, it's just another wrinkle in the road

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

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 all right, it's just another wrinkle in the road

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 all right, it's just another wrinkle in the road

That memory in my rearview now is just another wrinkle in the road
