COMPLETE INTRO:
I've come back this morning to where I first came alive
Here within this terminal where the buses arrive
/-5 M7
I was a commuter on the 804
Worked on 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
/-5 M7
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 she smiled
Won't you leave out work today - you ask of me then
So I phoned in sick on the way to the home of a friend
/-5 M7
We were all alone from 10 A.M. till three
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
/-5 M7
Could have had the fun of my entire life
But I have to get home to the kids and the wife and
M7
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 a chance
/-5 M7
Lord I'll never find her through 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 face
/-5 M7
I myself can only say it's livin dead
/-5 M7
Ridin to the office with the song in my head that goes
La da da da da da da da da da and you know it grows
La da da da da da da da da da
M7
Ohh La da da da da da da da da da Ohh
La da da da da da da da da da
M7
Ohh La da da da da da da da da da da da (Fade Out)
