Lyrics The Bus That Never Comes - Shirley Bassey

This godforsaken town
Year in and year out
Where everything is brown
The grass, the trees, the rose, the sky, the mud
Oh the mud

Im looking to the day
That I can clear out
Get far enough away
To New Orleans, New York, new hopes, new heights
And new blood

A bus that never comes
A train that never leaves
Mocks me like the wind
That whistles through the eaves
And doors

I pray someone arrives
I dont care from where
Change both our humdrum lives
By stopping off a while to see the town
And meet me

And when he starts to leave
Starts heading somewhere
The tugging at his sleeve
Could even be a tugging at his heart
Could it be?

A bus that never comes
A train that never leaves
Wakes me from my dreams
I dreamed a dream that weaves

A bus that never comes
A train that never leaves
A bus that never comes
A train that never leaves
