As it pulled away The Greyhound took the shade with it Don't you feel the sun come down? It can get so lonely downtown Rolling down the hill I tell myself a million times It's gonna be an ok year It can get so lonely down here Leave the car in drive It will only take a moment to say goodbye Laughing through the pain Of keeping up appearances Honey that's a waste of time But it can get so lonely sometimes You know we couldn't keep That promise til the end of time They're never really what they seem The shadow of a green-eyed daydream Leave the car in drive It will only take a moment to say goodbye And if you should survive Honey I'll be back before you notice that I'm gone I wanna pull away But even when I try Your pictures keep me warm So I'll be waiting for your call That's just how it is for now But it won't be this way forever
