Bus stop

American pinup
Yesterday
I saw you at the bus stop
And you were waiting with those wires in your ears
Just like old days
You still don't have a car and
I find out that this town's been missing me for years

And as I roll around these streets
They conjure distant memories
Of all the hearts I left behind

This town and me
We never really got along
I was a mystery
To all those people in the halls
And now that I'm back
Feeling like a stranger
Doesn't really feel so strange

Years ago
We had so much in common
Some may have thought we even shared a rib or two
We were the kids
With matching leather jackets
Smoking, ditching school

But years ago
I told you I was leaving
And you just smiled with that ring around your head
You muttered, "whoa"
And said "Congratulations,"
"Don't ever let me see your face back here again"

We swore that we would keep in touch
But swearing never helped us much
And it got easier with time

This town and me
We never really got along
I was a mystery
To all those people in the halls
And now that I'm back
Feeling like a stranger
Doesn't really feel so strange

Why don't you cut me some slack?
I took my chances coming back
Don't you not look at me that way

And if it's too much I can stay
I know you're comfortable that way
I didn't think that you would mind

This town and me
We never really got along
I was a mystery
To all those people in the halls
And now that I'm back
Feeling like a stranger
Doesn't really feel so strange

Yesterday
I saw you at the bus stop
I knew that it had been too long to say hello
The beeline came
And you just climbed right on and
I didn't have the guts to ask you not to go
