Buffalo Lyrics

Buffalo once roamed

The great expanse of our country

Now they stand in the sandbox
In the corner of the city

We had our picnics in the park

Watching the bison mope

Once a proud and noble beast
Now the butt of our bad jokes

You saw me off at the station

In your leopard print coat and hat

It was so a cliche we had to laugh

Waving at me as I left

But when the laughter made us sadder

Than the leaving could have had

In a flash I cried
Oh, goodbye girl of mine

When it came time for me to go

The buffalo had the last laugh
Waiting at the gate they sneered
They strut and pranced

How did I know I though

A thing like that

An instant in the distant past
A fling was only fleeting

Meant to end not made to last

You saw me off at the station
In your leopard print coat and hat

It was so a cliche we had to laugh

Waving at me as I left

But when the laughter made us sadder

Than the leaving could have had

In a flash I cried

Goodbye girl, it was a time

What a time a time to remember

Something that good

Can't last forever
But now I wonder if

It might have after all

As the train pulled away, it hit me

What I really would be missing

As laughter could be
Leaving wa not as bitter or sweet
