(Verse) Sunrise paints the station gold Another morning, stories old I stood there with my ticket clutched so tight Dreaming of a journey, bathed in light The platform hummed, a gentle, whispered plea For a destination waiting there for me (Chorus) But the train I waited for, it rolled right by A blur of steel beneath a morning sky And now the tracks are empty, cold and bare Just the echo of a whistle in the air A moment lost, a chance I let slip through That past and lost train, I'll forever rue (Verse) Maybe I was gazing at the ground Lost in thoughts, without a single sound Or maybe just a second, turned away Missed the boarding call that fateful day The doors hissed shut, a sigh against the pane Leaving me behind in falling rain (Chorus) 'Cause the train I waited for, it rolled right by A blur of steel beneath a morning sky And now the tracks are empty, cold and bare Just the echo of a whistle in the air A moment lost, a chance I let slip through That past and lost train, I'll forever rue (Bridge) Some say there's always another ride Another chance, another tide But this one felt like destiny's own call A singular departure, standing tall And though the future stretches, bright and wide A part of me is left there, deep inside (Chorus) For the train I waited for, it rolled right by A blur of steel beneath a morning sky And now the tracks are empty, cold and bare Just the echo of a whistle in the air A moment lost, a chance I let slip through That past and lost train, I'll forever rue (Outro) Oh, the past and lost train Carrying my dreams away Never to return, no, never again Just the memory of that day.
