Last Train Home

Last train moving out of sight

Carrying pieces of the night

Platform cold beneath my feet

Heartbeat syncing with the beat

All the words I didn’t say

Ride the rails and drift away

Saxophone begins to rise

Like a tear in quiet eyes

Bassline heavy, slow and low

Teaching me to let you go

Last train home in the dark

Leaving just a fading spark

Every mile pulls apart

What’s left of my heart

City shrinking through the glass

Watching all the moments pass

Piano chords in minor key

Writing our epilogue for me

If the sunrise finds my face

I’ll accept the empty space

But tonight I let it roam

On this last train home

Last train home in the dark

Leaving just a fading spark

Every mile pulls apart

What’s left of my heart

Last train home in the dark

Leaving just a fading spark

Every mile pulls apart

What’s left of my heart

Train fades into the dawn

But the rhythm carries on
