Every once in a while a song comes out of nowhere that hits you hard. I love this song by #AndreasNoe called “BUS STOP”
Love the message about how we have to take chances sometimes in life that seem crazy but then it changes our lives forever. It can be at a bus stop or anywhere else.
I made one of those wild and crazy decisions 25 years ago when I met this beautiful redheaded Southern Belle who lived far away in Georgia… it was April 1, yes April Fool’s Day but it was also Good Friday….we hit it off online before the internet was even a thing. It was on AOL… and we spent hours every day chatting and eventually talking on the phone for weeks before we even knew what we looked like but we were already falling in love–before we even met.
When I finally flew done to Georgia to meet her I knew I was never going back to my old life in New Jersey. Weeks later I had my stuff sent down here and I proposed on August 21 and we married on June 24th the next year. 23 years later and three wonderful kids …I lost her before Christmas 2017 but I am forever grateful for taking that leap of faith that was the best move I ever made.
Standing in the line at the bus stop
Two hearts in the crowd wondering where to go
Do we jump or stay the distance, I don’t know
But I can tell that your mind is moving
Are you afraid of “what if”s?
Scared of “I told you so”s?
I guess a heart never knows where the road goes
But I think we’re made of something that others only fake
But let me know before it gets too late
Do you wanna take a ride
Headlights on the far horizon
Have a couple of stories when we are old
Do you wanna take a step with a chance of never going back?
Never have to be sorry when we are old
You’re making up your mind at the bus stop
You close your eyes and say “don’t let me go”
As the daylight fades in the afterglow
Maybe it’s all that we dreamed of
Maybe it’s a lie or a long shot
But nothing happens here at the bus stop
Bus stop
Bus stop
Do you wanna take a ride
Headlights on the far horizon
Have a couple of stories when we are old
Do you wanna take a step with a chance of never going back?
Never have to be sorry when we are old
The bus is pulling over it isn’t gonna wait
So if we’re made of something that others only fake
Chances are we’ll get there
What do you say
So do you wanna take a ride
Headlights on the far horizon
Have a couple of stories when we are old
Do you wanna take a step with a chance of never going back?
Never have to be sorry when we are old
Do you wanna take a ride
Headlights on the far horizon
Have a couple of stories when we are old
Do you wanna take a step with a chance of never going back?
Never have to be sorry when we are old
