The finest silver needle Shouldn't ever slide between When lovers stand as parting friends Gonna put myself on a leaving train And I won't come back again I could wait 'til morning If it don't come down today A dime says I won't be satisfied Gonna put myself on a leaving train
And I won't come back again The words that go unspoken On the color of the sun And the coolin' air of the evening shade And the breathless hours on the sleeping plane And the last taillight on a leaving train And I won't come back again And I won't come back again
