Lyrics How Long Has That Evening Train Been Gone - Album Version (Stereo) - Diana Ross , The Supremes

How long
Has that evening train been gone?
Oh-oh
I want to know how long
Yea-yeah
Has that evening train been gone?
Oh-oh-oh-ooh
I have my babe was standing at the station
Waiting for a train
I ran to the door with my heart in my hand
(Heart in my hand)
And all my future plans (Future plans)
I've got to catch him if I can
Is that express Mr. Station man?
I woke up this mornin'
With a smile on my face
Feelin' that the world
The world was a beautiful place
How long
Has that evening train been gone?
Oh, yea
(I want to know)
How long
Has that evening train been gone?
(Has that train been gone, oh-oh)
Oh-oh-oh
On a scrap of paper
Was the train arriving information
His room was empty and his closet's bare (Closet's bare)
And not a single shirt was hangin' there (Hangin' there)
How could the guy just up and leave me?
What did I do that was so displeasing?
Only yesterday he helped me type
He told me everything
Everything gonna be alright
Oh
Said he love me
And he cried, oh yea
Said he love me
And he cried, oh yes he did now
There must be an explanation
Come on and move out the station
Can't you see that he's taking my world?
And making me a sad sad girl
That's why I can't let go
That's why I got to know
How long
Has that evening train been gone?
(How long has that train been gone?)
I want to know how long
Has the train been gone?
Oh yeah, has that evening train been gone
Right now
Can't wait a minute longer
Has that evening train been gone?
(How long has that train been gone?)
Right now
Don't wanna wait a minute longer
How long has that evening train been gone?
