Too Soon, Too Cold

[Verse 1] I watched the clock, thought I had time The morning rush, in line with the chime But the wheels rolled in, a tale too cruel The bus, it came, oh, a bit too soon [Chorus] Now I'm standing here, in the pouring rain Thirty minutes cold, nursing my pain The bus didn't wait, it just sped away In this lonely shelter, where shadows sway [Verse 2] A gust of wind, the shelter's no use Rain like needles, this wait's abuse Memories of warmth, a distant sun Under this storm, I'm the lonely one [Pre-chorus] If I could turn back the hands, just a minute more I’d be there inside, not out here tore But time’s a thief, in the cold it thrives Stealing moments, of our busy lives [Chorus] Now I'm standing here, in the pouring rain Thirty minutes cold, nursing my pain The bus didn't wait, it just sped away In this lonely shelter, where shadows sway [Verse 3] The streetlights flicker, mocking my plight Each drop of rain, a piercing bite Hope seems a myth, in this endless wait By the roadside, sealed seems my fate [Outro] When the next bus comes, I’ll find my way But this bitter cold, will it ever stray? Till then it’s me, the rain, and the night A lost commuter, out of sight, out of light.
