lyrics

every wednesday and every weekend
i take the pink line out to the west side
and i’d be lying if i said that you don’t cross my mind

i sit on the quiet morning train
that carves a path through the city scape
running away from the rising sun

maybe in the grand scheme of things
we weren’t meant to be

i wonder if you remember
one late summer night
we met in the park right next to washington street
where i told myself i’d get down on one knee some day
we talked for a while
it wasn’t long before i made you mad
you walked away and left me on the bench alone
i got up to follow you
but you made it halfway through the crosswalk
before they came and took you away
exotic boys and girls that sculpt and color white canvas
sculpt and color white canvas

you made it halfway through the crosswalk
before they took you away from me
you’ve got your new friends up on state street
and they’re much more talented than me

maybe in the grand scheme of things
we weren’t meant to be
i should have kissed you in the park
next to washington street
where i told myself id get down on one knee

maybe in the grand scheme of things
we weren’t meant to be
maybe in the grand scheme of things
we weren’t meant to be
