Sometimes I Think I'm the Only Cab on the Road

I know the feeling of thinking I'm the only one out there feeling this way sometimes...just as the cabbie must continue making the rounds to pay the bills, so must we keep putting ourselves out there, or at minimum, remaining open to the possibility of someone special if that is our heart's desire (as it is mine). Does it open a person up to the possibility of being hurt? You bet it does, but as they say, it beats the alternative.

"Cab", Train
For Me, It's You, 2006

"New York snow this time of year
There's nothing more beautiful to me
Except for you
Making my way on the town and down
seeing familiar places, faces
In my pile of coffee grounds
The days are better, the nights are still so lonely
Sometimes I think I'm the only cab on the road
Sometimes I think I'm the only cab on the road

Watching my breath rise in the sun
Pulling myself into mid-one
Helplessly feel for my phone and drive away

This new rhythm I pursue
Is just my getting over you
Telling myself that I need to

The days are better, the nights are still so lonely
Sometimes I think I'm the only cab on the road
Sometimes I think I'm the only cab on the road

I'm still looking for a play no one said that it was fair
To be alone

The days are better, the nights are still so lonely
Sometimes I think I'm the only cab on the road

The days are better, the nights are still so lonely
Sometimes I think Im the only cab on the road
Sometimes I think Im the only cab on the road."
