You were always in a rush,
Always on your way off to somewhere
The whole thing started as a crush
But soon I found it hard when you were not there
Could it be we've grown
apart?
I remember waiting on the platform
Now I don't know what to do with my heart
It seems like the calm that comes before a big storm
So are we strangers, strangers,
strangers on a train?
I can't find the right words to say to you
We've become strangers, strangers on a train
For a moment, there I really thought I knew you,
Strangers on a train...
What was sunshine, turns to rain,
I fear a secret, somewhere, lurking in a shadow
So now we're strangers on a train,
Lost in thought and staring out the window
Is there no hope here for repair?
What now is the path of least resistance?
You know that I still care
After we have traveled all this distance
I've made my share of mistakes
I was not aware we had reached a destination
Why must you apply the brakes?
Is someone waiting for you at the next station?
It's been a long time coming
on
Don't think this journey's got to end
What was right is simply gone
There's trouble comin' ėround the bend...
