The Metro

I'm alone
Sitting with my empty glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Smiling through apologies
I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind

I remember a soldier sleeping next to me

Riding on the Metro

You were white
Smiling as you took my hand
So removed
We spent the wintertime in France
Years have passed with shallow words
Years have passed but still I hurt
Oh I can see you now
Smiling as I pulled away

I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand
How love always fills my heart
I remember at night we walked along the sand

Riding on the Metro

I remember a feeling coming over me
The soldier turned and looked away
I remember hating you for loving me

Riding on the Metro

I'm alone

Sitting with my broken glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Smiling through apologies

Sorry
I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me

Riding on the Metro
