Bus Stop Go

Standing there at the bus stop 
Too nervous to even speak
You showed up looking 
Like you were the bomb 
I try to say something but 
My tongue doesn't move
It just sends to my brain an utter
Sitting behind you your perfume 
Hits me like a brick off an overpass
Seven more minutes of bliss 
Eight if we get stuck at the light 
Six hours and forty-four minutes 
I get the same smell from behind 
As my words are only in my mind 
Tomorrow at the bus stop to there I go
