Girl on the Bus

The girl on the bus walks in in slow motion
A sway in her hips with each bump in the road
She looks for somewhere to sit, away from the heat
You patiently wait for your reflections to meet

The girl on the bus dresses only in white
She’s lost in her thoughts with eyelids half-closed
She looks through the window, the world gazes right back
Making sure that her day is moving on track

Because the girl on the bus has places to be
And more fortunate people than you to meet
And though she won’t hear it you whisper “goodbye”
And forget all about her until the next time

For your journey is long and the stations are plenty
And the girl from the bus is out there somewhere
patiently waiting..
