lyrics

Waiting for a bus that doesn't come
Waiting for a train that doesn't run
Looks like nothing's gonna get me back
To when my dreams weren't blue & skies weren't black

I can't take a kite, the wind's too strong
I can't take a boat, the map's all wrong
Looks like nothing's gonna get me back
To when my dreams weren't blue & skies weren't black

Gonna get me a bulldog
To see the mailman run
A snake for when he stumbles
And a gator just for fun
There was a time when you & I were friends
When God was young & A & E were ten

I'm quite sure your letter never came
No coded message in the Evening Mail
Looks like nothing's gonna get me back
To when my dreams weren't blue & skies weren't black

Nothing up ahead but falling rain
Must have lost the plot along the trail
There was a time when you & I were friends
When God was young & A & E were ten
