Lyrics by Alex Ford

Fall reached its peak a week ago
The North winds caught a cough
Cried all night my window crack
I couldn't shut him up

Maybe just maybe I'm crazy
Maybe saying it makes it so
Wandering around and I don't know where we are

My lips are chapped they're bleeding
Still I bike on through the night
Angel halo headlights
Burning fierce and bright

So let's make believe that we're sailing
Across a green salty expanse
There's nothing to drink and I don't know where we are

Oh what a day
for a one-way ticket Bombay
Oh what a day to commiserate
Lonely nights, lying in the same bed both of our tongues tied
I won't steal your blanket tonight

Dear girl I might start walking
Leave this town behind
You'll not get hide nor hair of me
I'll be that hard to find
Maybe just maybe we're crazy
Maybe we're just two of a kind
I'll butter your toast and you'll get there on time
I'll butter your toast and you'll get there on time

Oh what a day
for a one-way ticket to Bombay
Oh what a day to commiserate
Lonely nights, lying in the same bed both of our tongues tied
I won't steal your blanket tonight

Oh what a day
for a one-way ticket to Bombay
Oh what a day to commiserate
