lyrics

I didn’t think to look here, but here you are
Like you’ve always been waiting in the cafe car
Don’t think I’m ready, can’t question fate
I sit down next to you for old times sake

Dirty fingernails and greasy hair
Wish I looked a little better

I practiced my small talk; my mind’s gone blank
My heart should be racing, but I don’t feel a pang
I’m too scared and you’re too stubborn to go off-script
Can’t we just improvise our way through this?

Two weeks in a sleeper bed
You smell like soap and fresh baked bread

Switching tracks, I’m all alone
Hear that lonesome whistle moan
Signal problems, ties undone
Switching tracks, I’m almost home

You’ll leave this train like you left school
I’ll watch you walk away
And wonder how your cheap shoes
Contain your feet of clay

Chorus
