[Verse 1]
On a dark night, the bus arrived at the bus stop, and I received a paper bag from my girlfriend. She whispered something sweet, and her voice lingered in my mind.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I got on the bus and waved goodbye to her while looking back.
[Chorus]
The bus began to roll away, into the dark of night.
I kept on waving back at her, until she left my sight.
[Verse 2]
I transferred to another bus and got off near the zoo.
I walked up the gentle slope and through my own front door,
A long, hot bath was waiting, just what I was looking for.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
After getting out of the bath, I headed into the living room.
[Chorus 2]
I put Pat Metheny Group on the stereo, a favorite song to play,
His music always moves my soul at the closing of the day.
[Instrumental Solo]
[Verse 3]
Suddenly, the phone rang. My mother entered the living room and said, “A girl is calling for you.” “Okay,” I replied. I turned down the volume on the stereo and answered the phone.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
“Oh, thank goodness, you’re safe, “I heard fer softly sigh.
[Chorus 3]
“I’m sorry,” I replied at once, “I forgot to call, and I don’t know why.
Thank you for thinking of me, and for calling me tonight.”
[Final Chorus]
She said, “I’ll wait for your next diary, so send it soon, you hear?”
I answered, “Okay, I will put my heart in it, my dear.”
[Instrumental Solo]
