Midnight Train

There's something about the midnight trains
Cause me to be lonely
Something in the quiet hum
Of rails that see all these

Sparks, now they're lost
Dark March had cost...

Was it just the April rain
That caused me to be worried?
Could convincing droplets fall
And find you had been hurried?

Passed by me to you
Darkness ensued...

On my own, fluorescent in the night
Travelling true, my presence reflects the sight
You were the winds that leaves blew away
Spring soured summer, forever autumn will stay

Someone out the window-sill
Caught you looking elsewhere
Searching your own rocky seas
No signs but blank stares

Turbulence, in truth
Black May now moved...

Can I hear your cutest voice
Tell me now the plan's changed?
June had brought no signs of proof
For you to have your thoughts reigned

Inside, uncouth
Black mould of youth...

On my own, fluorescent in the night
Travelling true, my presence reflects the sight
You were the winds that leaves blew away
Spring soured summer, forever autumn will stay

Here we are in August chill
Strapped in for a hiding
Cool consumes the midnight air
And you consume my pining

Bonds beyond our time
Off for your prime...

Somewhere 'long the rigid rails
Turning signals steered you
To build a false idolatry
Of same ambitions set to

See September spoil
Flung out and foiled...

On my own, fluorescent in the night
Travelling true, my presence reflects the sight
You were the winds that leaves blew away
Spring soured summer, forever autumn will stay

Over by the railway bridge
The unknown now was spotted
Months had moved, and I was noosed
Old October blotted

Out the moon's clear light
Darkness closed tight...

Chunk and chunk o'er endless tracks
The midnight train keeps moving
Silvery strands shoot in a plume
Night skies turn to lotting

Fuelled only by faith
November's state...

And so approached a passenger
To find the carriage empty
Ticket stubs strew platform floors
December had been heavy

Folly for flight
Trains at midnight...

On my own, fluorescent in the night
Travelling true, my presence reflects the sight
You were the winds that leaves blew away
Spring soured summer, forever autumn will stay

On my own, fluorescent in the night
Travelling true, my presence reflects the sight
You were the winds that leaves blew away
Spring soured summer, forever autumn will stay

There's something about the midnight trains
That cause me to be lonely...
