I see her at the station
Melancholy silhouette
River of light and road of regret
Lines up and down
Like the lines on her face
Weight on her shoulders
Like she's waiting for grace
And I see her there
Treading her way through the pain, I say
Hey! Are you okay, are you far from home?
You're standing in the cold all alone
Baa Da Da dat da die die
Baa Da Da dat da die die
Baa Da Da dat da die die
Baa Da Da dat da die die
She told me not to worry
That she would soon go to sleep
But she has two kids at home
And we all need to eat
With that she left me
And walked back into the light
Not a day now has passed by
When I don't think back to that night
Then I see her again
Passing me by all the same, I say
Hey! Remember me? We met on High Street
I knew one day again we would meet
Baa Da Da dat da die die
Baa Da Da dat da die die
Baa Da Da dat da die die
Baa Da Da dat da die die
