So unfolds the mystery
A spark of light I choose to see
And now the promise love campaigns
Leaves me only burned remains
But the time has passed with no way of showing
And all the faces disappear without knowing
From a line I cast before
Take me to forgotten shores
And I'm confined by memory
Of love untouched, I'll never see
But the time has passed with no way of showing
And all the faces disappear without knowing
I've got a train coming...
Watch out, you'd better watch out...
So for love to show I pray
And should it ever come to stay
I know I'll beat a path to hide
When in the end, love only dies
But the time has passed with no way of showing
And all the faces disappear without knowing
And if you should trip my line
I'll make it up to you next time
A bleeding heart is left to see
Just what love has done for me
But not again in my lifetime
Not again in my life
I've got a train coming...
What was here is empty now
It's showing...
(What can I say?)
