🎶 Original song by Slippery Rock, used with her blessing. Thank you for letting me bring my baritone to something so beautiful. Please go check out her original too! I told myself you wouldn’t come It made it easier that way Bought the ticket with a steady hand Like I’d already made my peace The station air was cool and thin Carrying goodbye in it I kept my eyes on the departure board Watched the numbers start to blur Tried to picture moving on Without the sound of you I thought I’d learned to live with that The space where we had been Footsteps on the platform I didn’t turn around Chorus I thought you wouldn’t come And there you were Standing in the half-lit world Like you’d always belonged No big speech No grand design Just your hand finding mine I thought I’d lost you to the night And there you were The train pulled in behind us Steel and sparks and sound But everything went quiet When you said my name out loud Sometimes love doesn’t chase you It just shows up Bridge (Lift gently) If I had left that minute I would’ve never known How close we were to breaking How close we were to home Final Chorus I thought you wouldn’t come And there you were Turning almost into always Right in front of me Let the last train roll away We’ve got time to stay I thought I’d missed my chance And there you were
