Lyrics Bound For Morning - 17 Hippies

Bound For Morning

She was standing at the bus-stop in the rain
When he stumbled she didn’t laugh
And as he picked himself up their eyes met and she smiled
and then … she turned away, got on the bus in the rain
Leaving him standing there bound for morning
What’s to say?
She just was on her way
He never found his way home
What he found was what he had to follow… forgetting time
Never turning away, he just stood everyday
Waiting for her to get off that next bus, that pulled up to the curb
Taking him to what’s left of tomorrow
And I forgot when they came to take him away
And I forgot all about him, 'till I realised you’re leaving today
Never turning away he just stood there, no time left to borrow
She never came and her smile faded away
I forgot when they came to take him away
I forgot all about him 'till I realised you’re leaving today
As I see you standing at the bus stop in the rain
I’ll stumble and you won’t laugh
And I’ll pick myself up, our eyes’ll meet and you’ll smile
And then you’ll turn away, get on the bus
In the rain, leaving me standing here bound for morning
Yes you’ll turn away, get on that bus
In the rain, leaving me
Bound for morning
