Verse 1
She broke my heart a thousand times
In a thousand different ways
And when I looked into her eyes
I knew I could not stay
As I stepped out into the rain
I walked away from all her lies
Didn’t even pack my things
Didn’t even say goodbye
Chorus:
Now I’m standing at the trying to ease the pain
Hoping my heart can stand the strain
Now I’m standing at the station
In the pouring rain
Nothing moves you nothing soothes you
Like a train
Verse 2
I wanna feel the rails embracing me
Just like a long lost friend
And I know just where she’s takin me
Yeah she’s loyal to the end
I wanna feel the track beneath my feet
Here the lonesome whistle cry
Sink my bones into the seat and let it
Rock my blues goodbye
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Waiting on the twelve-fifteen
All the lies go up in steam
Waiting on the rails to
Set me free
Verse 3
Well the twelve-fifteen
She’s right on time
I see her cutting through the storm
I here the thunder crash and the lighting strike
As I make my way on board
I never will forget the night
I stepped out in the rain
A lesson learned a new page turned
And had my life saved by a train
