Al Jarreau – Distracted lyrics

I wonder how do you do?
And should I come back to you?
I've been thinking
I wonder how do you do?
And should I come back to you?

I was lonely, sad and so distracted
I took a highway
It was the low way in disguise
There because only
My love had chain reacted

There was a detour 'long the way
With a soft shoulder toll to pay
Leaving me a lonely
Sad and so distracted

I was a lonely, so sad and so distracted
Taking the freeway, but when I broke free
I closed my eyes
Mama, please hold me real close
'Cause I've been fractured

There was a detour along the way
With a soft shoulder toll to pay
Leavin' me a lonely
Sad and so distracted

Notice the teardrops
Running down on my cheek
Notice the laughter
Making it loud's a good disguise
I'm taking my heartaches
For a little ride on main street

There was a detour 'long the way
Just another heart that stalled today
Leaving me a lonely, sad and so
Distracted, play your horn, play on your horn

There was a detour 'long the way
Just another heart that stalled today
Leaving me a-lonely, sad and so
Distracted

I was lonely, sad and so distracted
I took a highway
It was the low way in disguise
There because only
My love had chain reacted

There was a detour 'long the way
With a soft shoulder toll to pay
Leaving me a lonely
Sad and so distracted
