Greyhound

I wish they would have let you on that grey hound bus

I wish the driver didn't think that you were drunk

I wish you would would have came all the way from california

to leave me that message on my wall

I wish you would have bought that can of spray paint

I like to try guess what color you would have picked

and I wish you would would have written those words big and bold

i wish i wish i wish I wish I wish

And I wish that when I came home in september

with a mixed up mind and my tail between my legs

that my head lights lit up the message that you left me

I would have turned the car around and drove away

I would drive all the way to california

and I would meet you in the place we said we'd meet

and would not complain or ask you to explain

because I'd know that you were looking out for me

C G D

and I think about how different things might be

if you would have been able to leave that message for me

would you have saved me from my sorrow

would you have saved my from myself

could I save you from your misery

could I have have been of help

would we be in california or

would we be somewhere else

but we will never know because

we will never know because

they wouldn't let you on that fucking greyhound bus

A C G DDDDDDDDDDDDD CCCCCCCCCC G

you never made it to indiana cause they wouldn't let you on

you never got a chance to write those words

alas babylon
