lyrics

Stood along the station wall
Awaiting your arrival
Heartbeat racing the screeching train
Running blind down the rusted tracks

Didn't show up, didn't get off the train,
But I kept waiting in the rain
Never left a note, never complained
So I waited in vain

I searched and searched for you every day
Though you didn't really want to be found
Tried to offer some peace of mind
But you stole it when I was blind

Never really knew her, never knew her
How could I have known her
Never knew her, never knew her
How could I have known her but I've always loved her

Never found her place never left that road,
Always runnin', always movin',
Never got a better picture of the world
Than the one you found on those tracks

Never really knew her, never knew her
How could I have known her
Never knew her, never knew her
How could I have known her but I've always loved her
