Lyrics
Buses, Trains, and Planes
(Ratts/Kern)
buses, trains and planes are all the same
they move you around and take you away
sometimes it's much better just to roam
than it ever really feels to make it home
so i lay awake at night and i dream
of the day that someone's waiting there for me
and as you leave the plane the lady smiles
she passes out goodbyes from the aisles
rejoined couples kiss and laugh out loud
silently you move into the crowd
and you wonder just how much you really know
it's certan you've come too far to be alone
fly away
there's a plane leaving today
give your fare and cares away
there's always somewhere else to go
to help forget that you're alone
if your life's a one-way ride
with no hand waving goodbye
to no one there to help you through
the bus is always there for you
still you never know
the places you could go
and people you might meet
accidentally on the street
it's possible you know
but only if you go...
fly away
there's a plane leaving today
give your fare and cares away
there's always somewhere else to go
to help forget that you're alone
if your life's a one-way ride
with no hand waving goodbye
to no one there to help you through
the bus is always there for you
