I missed my bus today
I can’t help but sob
Can’t help realizing
This isn’t what’s going on
Buses can be people
People important in your life
Thinking you might just know
Everything, when that’s just a lie
Bus stops are lifetimes,
Eras and people along the way
Bus stops are different
Each time deciding to leave or stay
Then there’s you and me
Having to face a reality
A bus can’t stay
For long, if thinking logically,
Always needing to catch up
In order not to lose it
Hands down, now it’s too late
You tried, but you couldn’t do it
I missed my bus today
But that’s okay
I have fairly learned that
Buses don’t have to stay anyway
