Bus Stop Tape Swap, Side A Is Yours
by Moth Static
“Side A is yours, side B is mine. A tape swap at a rainy bus stop is a very good way to fall for someone.”

Lyrics
Rain on the bus stop roof We are waiting for the ride You pull a tape out of your coat With a label scribbled wide Side A is yours, you say Side B is mine to choose Trade me for the one in my pocket We have nothing left to lose Swap a tape, swap a tape Side A is yours, side B is mine Swap a tape, swap a tape We will rewind the time I wrote the songs in order Slow and fast and slow Each one is a little message That I did not know how to say You hold it up to the streetlight You grin and squint to read It says play this when you're happy Play this when you need Swap a tape, swap a tape Side A is yours, side B is mine Swap a tape, swap a tape We will rewind the time The bus comes round the corner We do not want to go But a song is in my pocket And a song is in your coat Swap a tape, swap a tape Side A is yours, side B is mine Swap a tape, swap a tape We will rewind the time Side A is yours Side B is mine
