Verse 1

All that’s left to do is let the weariness be through

On this evening, start a spirit mending

Leave the long day at the door, feel your feet find something new

Let the good times turn the night around

Pre-Chorus

You know I’ve been waiting for a little room to breathe

One more turn, one more chance to leave

Chorus

Oh-oh-oh-oh, green-eyed taxi, not so fast

Oh-oh-oh-oh, please slow it down, stop, turn around

Oh-oh-oh-oh, take me over where the joy and happiness will last, will last

Verse 2

Tell the driver there’s a place where the jukebox knows my name

And the tired hearts can start again

There’s a table by the window, there’s a friend who saved my seat

Take the longer way and let me feel the beat
