Terminal

I've come back this morning

  • I've come back this morning
  • To where I first came alive
  • Here within this terminal
  • Where the buses arrive
  • I was a commuter on the 804
  • Worked for a computer
  • On the 19th floor and
  • You came down the aisle of the bus
  • And you sat by my side
  • Shoulder up to shoulder
  • We shared that 9 o'clock ride
  • Oh my heart was screaming
  • As you left your seat
  • Following your movements
  • I was at your feet and
  • Oh... down into the terminal
  • Both of us smiled
  • So... we entered the terminal
  • Just as you smiled
  • "Won't you leave out work for today?"
  • You asked of me then
  • So I phoned in sick on the way
  • To the home of a friend
  • We were all alone from 10 a.m. till 3
  • Really thought the fire
  • Had gone out of me but
  • You awoke the sleep of my life
  • From gray into red
  • Made the weary wonder of Wall Street
  • Rise from the dead
  • Could have held up
  • Budding my entire life
  • But I had to get home
  • To the kids and the wife and so
  • I left for the terminal where I began
  • Baby no, I wouldn't have left
  • If I'd been half a man
  • So here I am this morning
  • Where love had asked for the dance
  • Here within this terminal
  • Where I passed on the chance
  • Lord I'll never find her
  • Though I've truly tried
  • Probably she's found another
  • Bus to ride and
  • I am now about to begin
  • The last of my days
  • I'm within what others
  • Would call a terminal phase
  • I myself can only say it's livin' dead
  • Riding to the office with
  • A song in my head that goes...
  • La da da...
  • And you know it grows
  • La da da...
  • Oh la da da...
  • Oh la da da...
  • Oh la da da...
