I pass a town without a name    Seen through the window of a train    A boy and girl stand side by side    The train arrives, she kisses him goodbye       She turns away then steps on board    He thought he'd die but now he's sure    But as he thinks of one last thing to say    The train just rolls away       I pass a station with no sign    An old man gets on the train just in time    He used to love this town despite the rain    But since his wife died it's not been the same       He curses himself, he was weak    At his wife's grave he could not speak    But as he thinks that maybe he should stay    The train just rolls away       The driver likes his coffee strong and hot    The train he drives is everything he's not    He watches the sad people board the train    Then laughs as he pulls out and rolls away       Hits a hundred, no holding back    Then his dear train comes off the track    The news report said instant death, no pain    But who's really to say?    But who's really to say?    The train just rolled away    The train just rolls away
