Comes and Goes

The boy is telling his story
How he left his love
Hand to hand at the window of a train
The boy is staying behind now
To tend the fields
When spring arrives and ice melts in rain
He knows how hard it is to be alone
He's all alone
He knows the sorrow, it comes and goes
It comes and goes
It comes and goes

He's hiding in a hole
By the roadway
He hears a starving dog begin to bay
Or maybe it's a woman crying
In a farmhouse
That's burning down half a mile away
He knows how hard it is to be alone
He's all alone
He knows the sorrow, it comes and goes
It comes and goes
It comes and goes

She's waiting in the station watching as the trains come and go
And it's tearing her apart to hold him so close, but only in her heart

She knows how hard it is to be alone
She knows the sorrow, it comes and goes
So many like her, all left alone
It comes and goes
It comes and goes
