The bus stop feels dangerous after dark 
With my heart and my shadow,
Leaned and lined by doubt
I'm headed east from here tonight
I'm gonna make my mark 
I swear somewhere out there I'll make my mark 

And maybe once in awhile 
Maybe once in awhile
I'll dream about the love 
That I'm leaving behind
O behind

We were going through motions 
Before last Spring
When you and the flowers started to show
And the birds started to sing
It was a bandage on a broken arm 
It was a respite, it was a quick fix
It was a house of cards
That we did our best to wish into bricks


And maybe once in awhile 
Maybe once in awhile
I'll dream about the life 
That I'm leaving behind
O behind

Maybe it's my pride that can't believe 
That you and you and the boy aren't boy 
You are not mine 
You are not mine
And so goodbye..
So goodbye 

And maybe once in awhile 
Dream about the dream
Maybe once in a while 
I'll dream your love 
That I'm leaving behind
O behind
Girl, I'm leaving you and the boy 
behind
