Lyrics
I bought a ticket today
On the Greyhound Bus
It's gonna take me away
From the thought of us
The thought of us
It's been a long long time
Since I saw you smile
And I think it's a crime
That all the while...
(Chorus)
I've been The Passenger
Sitting in the back seat
Got a third class ticket down a one way street
I'm The Passenger
Taken for a ride
I bought a one way ticket so I wouldn't swallow my pride
I bought a ticket today
On the Amtrak Train
It's gonna take me away
From the drivin' rain, the drivin' rain
Well I remember the days
When we used to talk
Now it's all in a haze so I'll get out and walk
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Oooh oooh... I bought a one way ticket so I wouldn't swallow my pride
Oooh oooh... I bought a one way ticket so I could be by your side
I got a ticket today
On the Route 22
But I'll be happy to pay
'Cause I was comin' home to you
I'm gonna make you a deal
So our love could survive
I'll get behind the wheel
'Cause it's my turn to drive
(Chorus)
