lyrics

DONT MISS THE BUS ©P. PASCOE 2013

LOVE LIES IN WAITING TO QUELL YOUR THIRST
IT CAN GROW LIKE A FLOWER OR LIKE A BUBBLE, MAY BURST
CAN BE GONE IN AN INSTANT AND WOUND YOU FOR LIFE
HEALS LIKE MAGIC IT CUTS LIKE A KNIFE

CREEPS UP SO SLOWLY, YOU HARDLY KNOW IT'S THERE
SENDS YOU TO HEAVEN DROPS YOU INTO DESPAIR
THEY SAY TRUE LOVE WAITS ONLY FOR A CHOSEN FEW
I SAY IT DEPENDS WHAT YOU LOOK FOR AND IT DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU DO

PART OF THE WONDER IS PART OF THE CURSE
COS IT'LL GIVE TO YOUR SOUL AND STEAL FROM YOUR PURSE
AND IF LOVE IS YOUR RICHES WITH THAT I’D AGREE
AND IF IT’S YOUR MASTER WE’RE ALL LIVING FREE

IT'LL RUN LIKE A CHILD DEMAND TO BE CAUGHT
IT'S STILL RUNNING WILD NEVER CAN BE BOUGHT
IT'LL REAPPEAR IN THE SHADOWS YOU CAST YOURSELF TO
IT'S WAITING FOR ME AND IT'S WAITING FOR YOU

OH LONELY ME OH LONELY YOU IT’S WAITING FOR YOU

YOU CAN'T BEGIN TO IMAGINE THE FEELING INSIDE
WHEN LOVE STARTS TO BLOSSOM INSTEAD OF CROUCHING TO HIDE
YOUR WORLD EXPLODES, TURNS YOU ON YOUR HEAD
NO ONE CAN EXPLAIN WHY WE WAIT TIL WE’RE DEAD

TO EMBRACE THIS SLOW BURNING TRUTH
FOR IT'S FOOD FOR THE TABLE AND WOOD FOR YOUR ROOF
LOVE IS OUR TEACHER, IT’LL SPLIT YOU OPEN WIDE
IF YOUR HEART IS BROKEN, THEN YOU SEE INSIDE

OH LONELY ME OH LONELY YOU YOU SEE INSIDE

LOVE IS A BEACON THAT WILL NEVER CEASE
BUT THERE'S A FREAK IN THE KITCHEN HE’LL COST US OUR PEACE
IF WE DONT FLUSH HIM OUT WE’LL ALL FALL FROM OUR TREES
AINT THAT WHERE IT ALL STARTED NOW WE’RE DOWN ON OUR KNEES

IT WAITS IN THE QUIET PAUSE BETWEEN BREATHS
MAYBE THAT’S ALL WE’VE GOT BETWEEN OUR BIRTH AND OUR DEATH
IT TAPS AT THE WINDOWS AND SPEAKS IN OUR DREAMS
ITS HEARD IN OUR LAUGHTER , OUR WHISPERS AND SCREAMS

OH LONELY ME OH LONELY YOU, OUR WHISPERS AND SCREAMS.


NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU'VE GOT OR HOW MUCH YOU MAY LACK
THERE'S ALWAYS WAY AND THERE’S STILL TIME TO TURN BACK
FOR NO MATTER HOW FAR OFF THE PATH WE MAY ROAM
THEY SAY LOVE WAITS IN SILENCE TO LEAD US ALL HOME

OH LUCKY ME OH LUCKY US JUST DONT MISS THE BUS

LEADS US HOME WHEREVER WE ROAM
YOU AND ME NO NEED TO FUSS
JUST DONT MISS THE BUS
