Last Train

 Familiar with the platform

Sat here far too long

Waited on the twelve fifteen

While trying to write a memorable song

The Train pulled in and quietly left the station

While I was deep in conversation

With myself and a memory

Trying to find the lock and key

My journey and existence

My life and long distance

Are so much like that Mystery train

Never to be heard or seen again

My memories have long since left

Never to return or pass the test

Of knowledge and experience

Ability or competence

I was once able to learn how to drive

Tie my shoes and try em for size

But somehow now the will has gone

Like the train I should have been on

My journey and existence

My life and my long distance

Are so much like that last missed train

Never to be heard or seen again

Now I have to wait an hour or more

The next one due  One Thirty four

Pay attention the thought in  my mind

Don't miss another or get left behind

Familiar with the platform

Sat here far too long

Waiting on the last train home

Writing a song sat all alone.

My journey and existence

My life and my long distance

Are so much like that ghost train

Never to be heard or seen again

All aboard for god knows where

Cant miss my stop but do I care

My destination is waiting for me

My heart waits there to set me free
