The Night Train


As I lay down to sleep,

To dream

I know where you go,

My soul, I know where you wander.

 

You board the night train

And you search.

At every stop you look,

You hope.

 

Around you go,

To every corner of my mind,

You revisit every moment,

Every moment that I loved her.

 

Every stop

In every second

Of every memory.

 

And at the last stop,

You disembark,

You sit,

In the spot where we sat

The day that she boarded the train,

To never look back.
