Here we stand in the mornin light
Wishing it was still last night
A glow of fire light in our eyes
And never a trace of goodbye
If this train station was our room
Then the sun would be the moon
And all our tears would be the rain
I wish that was thunder, not a train
(Chorus)
And while this southbound carries me to Burmingham
I'll take your memory while the rails take me down
But I'll leave my heart to you
I know you'll keep it safe, till my leavin's through
Keep our promise by your side
And let our true love be your guide
Through the miles that lie between
We'll close the distance when we dream
And while you're lyin' in the dark
Waken with a gentle start
You hear your name upon the wind
I'm comin' home to you again
(Chorus)
I know you'll keep it safe, till my leavin's through
