Day is dawning and I must go

You're asleep but still I'm sure you'll know

Why it had to end this way

You and I had a groovy time

But I told you somewhere down the line

You would have to find me gone

I just have to move along



Just another town, another train

Waiting in the morning rain

Look in my restless soul, a little patience

Just another town, another train

Nothing lost and nothing gained

Guess I will spend my life in railway stations

Guess I will spend my life in railway stations



When you wake I know you'll cry

And the words I wrote to say goodbye

They won't comfort you at all

But in time you will understand

That the dreams we dreamed were made of sand

For a no-good bum like me

To live is to be free



Just another town, another train

Waiting in the morning rain

Look in my restless soul, a little patience

Just another town, another train

Nothing lost and nothing gained

Guess I will spend my life in railway stations

Guess I will spend my life in railway stations



(repeat and fade
