Now as the Train Pulls Away Run Time: 3:11
Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI) ©2000

here on the platform a well laid plan
pain in your pocket ticket in your hand
rain on your lips honey i wish you would stay
now as the train pulls away

no signs to read no voices to warn
people don't stay in love anymore
what about forever 'til the end of our days?
now as the train pulls away

rehearsed all my lines but i forgot what to say
some things are just too little too late

eyes they're all empty mouths they're all dry
words they just stumble and fail you every time
aching's all that's left at the end of the day
now as the train pulls away
