When the whistle blows And the goodbye hugs are over Then the train pulls out of the station and rolls towards the dawn With that old suitcase in hand and a surefire plan gone over This time it will work it can't go wrong Cause I've got all of our dreams mixed up with my schemes Rollin' around in my mind I know the sun's gonna shine Shine on me this time In a week or two I'll be writing to you with good news And I can just see your smile as you read about all that I've done Cause I've got all of our plans right here in my hands And things are gonna work out just fine Cause I know the sun's gonna shine Shine on me this time I've seen confusion in your eyes I've seen uncertainty and fear Keep on lookin' for tomorrow Soon it will be here This time, it's gonna be this time This time, it's gotta be this time This time, this time (it's never never) This time, this time (the day is coming) This time, this time (it's never never) This time, this time (the day is coming)
