[Verse 1] I missed the first one, yeah Held my coat too tight Rain on my sleeves And your text went white Platform smelled like change Benches cold and slick I stared down the track Then the board flipped quick [Pre-Chorus] Now the signs all fade And the doors all close I can hear my name In the gravel road [Chorus] I take the last train Back to you tonight I take the last train Try to make it right Last train, last train Don’t let me arrive too late [Verse 2] Old coins in my pocket Pressed flat and bent One stop past regret One more chance I spent Your blue porch light Waits across the town If I get there soon You might still look down [Pre-Chorus] Now the signs all fade And the doors all close I can hear my name In the gravel road [Chorus] I take the last train Back to you tonight I take the last train Try to make it right Last train, last train Don’t let me arrive too late [Bridge] If the wheels keep turning I’ll keep my word If the dark keeps leaning I’ll still be heard No more missed connections No more pride in me Just one last station And your front step key [Final Chorus] I take the last train Back to you tonight I take the last train Try to make it right Last train, last train I’m coming in with the dawn Last train, last train I’m not turning back alone
