An empty railroad station
Is a lonely place to be
And a suitcase full of memories
Is a heavy load to carry
I've got no destination
No special place to be
I'm just waiting for a train that never runs
Lord, I'm waiting for a train that never comes
Tears bought my ticket
On a train that goes nowhere
I paid the price with heartaches
A fare that seem so unfair
The silence of the moment
Is the only sound I hear
I'm just waiting for a train that never runs
Lord, I'm waiting for a train that never comes
Measured time and cross ties
The train of love is gone
Down the tracks of yesterday
I see the rails it left on
My mind is just a depot
Where I wait all alone
I'm just waiting for a train that never runs
Lord, I'm waiting for a train that never comes
