Lyrics
Late One Wednesday
late one wednesday I tied up my shoes
decided I had to get out and shake these lonely thoughts of you
I walked down to the corner and I saw a couple standing there
looking at each other they didn't have a care in the world
when they would look at each other time stood still in their eyes
and as he got on the bus she never said goodbye
then i turned and saw a window with a reflection of my face
reminded me I'm getting older and that I still haven't found my place in the world
my only place where time stood still was in your eyes
but you've said your goodbyes, goodbye
as I'm walking home now I feel so cold and alone
but I know you're fine and safe and warm at home
and better off without me and probably not alone
so now I'll say my goodbyes, goodbye
