lyrics

It was Saturday night at Kelly's On King
A surprise birthday party
Good times and good friends
And I kept on saying to all that I spoke
It's only a fortnight until she's coming home

Then on Sunday evening you delivered the news
That you were staying for Christmas
And you weren't coming home
And in that split second
I felt my heart break in two
Now there's a ghost in my stomach
That won't leave me alone

Now this train doesn't stop at this station no more
It just passes through town like a hurricane
It sucks passengers and luggage
Right onto the tracks
And I watch as the lights fade away

Then on Monday night I was so depressed
That I drowned all my sorrows
With some of the best
And I knew at that moment
That you would not be impressed
But I don't have to worry about
Impressing you anymore

And as I flew through the air
And my weight hit the ground
From the bicycle catapult
That launched me straight down
Well I knew at that moment
It was time for a change
So I packed up my things
And I moved home right away

Now this train doesn't stop
At this station no more
I've been waiting for it all of my life
And the platform attendant
Smiles at me and he says;
"Keep your ear to the ground
I can hear one coming in"
