Seven o'clock Friday night
Station light neon glow
I saw her standing by the door
Coffee cup looking for
The next train out of town
My heart was beating like a drum
I wanted to say something
But the words just wouldn't come
She looked my way I looked away
Now the whistle's screaming loud
Every train that pulls away
Takes a piece of what I meant to say
She picked her bag turned around
"All aboard"is what they yell
She stepped inside found her seat
I'm standing here wishing well
She smiled at someone not at me
The gates are closing time runs out
The train rolls out she's gone for good
I'm still here where I always stood
