The Wheels Fell Off - The Hoosiers

Do you remember when the wheels fell off the bus

We were heading for a wedding and there was no stopping us

I fell head over heels but that wasn't enough

And now the bolts that bind us have all just turned to rust

I wonder what's under your bandages

We speak the same words in different languages

Just say the word and I'll help you to unfreeze

But it's so hard when you don't know the word for please

Do you remember when the wheels fell off the bus

I was caught dragging my heels when you were in a rush

Driving has a way of proving perilous

What good's a steering wheel when your hands have both been crushed

To catch perfection with a net and rod

White whales haunt your vision and you lose sight of what you've got

You are unshakeable in your self-belief

Just like all madmen who succumb to the deep

Tell me where did you go

Tell me where did our friend go

Tell me where did our friend go

Pangaea to Atlantis

In just under a year

You did all the drifting

So I'm gonna save my tears

Probably all my fault

That you couldn't be more wrong

I've tried too hard for too long

Too hard for too long
