Wheels on the Bus Lyrics by Martin McDaniel

Then There’s Me

0

[Verse 1]
I can smell the diesel burning
And I can feel my hand is shaking
I never thought we'd say goodbye
Standing at a Greyhound station
Boarding pass says 8:55
She swears she's really gone this time
And there's nothign else that I can do
[Chorus]
'Cause the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round
Taking her heart to another town
She's gone, so long
And I can't slow her down
Yeah the highway just goes on and on
With every mile she's longer gone
And there ain't no way to stop her now
'Cause the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round
[Verse 2]
Is she drifting off and dreaming
About some new town?
Is she staring out the window crying?
Wishing that driver would just slow down
Is she thinking 'bout all she left behind?
Is regret sitting in the seat beside her?
The only thing I know for sure right now
[Chorus]
Is the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round
Taking her heart to another town
She's gone, so long
And I can't slow her down
Yeah the highway just goes on and on
With every mile she's longer gone
And there ain't no way to stop her now
Yeah the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round
[Bridge]
I wish that thing would break down on the shoulder
Yeah before she's too far gone and it's really over
[Chorus]
'Cause the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round
Taking my heart to another town
She's gone, so long
And I can't slow her down
Yeah the highway just goes on and on
With every mile she's longer gone
And there ain't no way to stop her now
Yeah the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round
The wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round
The wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round
Oh the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round yeah
