I pass a town without a name

Seen through the window of a train

A boy and girl stand side by side

The train arrives, she kisses him goodbye



She turns away then steps on board

He thought he'd die but now he's sure

But as he thinks of one last thing to say

The train just rolls away



I pass a station with no sign

An old man gets on the train just in time

He used to love this town despite the rain

But since his wife died it's not been the same



He curses himself, he was weak

At his wife's grave he could not speak

But as he thinks that maybe he should stay

The train just rolls away



The driver likes his coffee strong and hot

The train he drives is everything he's not

He watches the sad people board the train

Then laughs as he pulls out and rolls away



Hits a hundred, no holding back

Then his dear train comes off the track

The news report said instant death, no pain

But who's really to say?

But who's really to say?

The train just rolled away

The train just rolls away
