How Long Has That Evening Train Been Gone
How long has that evening train been gone? (whoa, whoa)
I wanna know
How long, yeah, has that evening train been gone? (whoa, whoa)
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I heard my baby was standing at the station
Waiting for a train
I ran to the door with my heart in my hand (heart in my hand)
And all my future plans (future plans)
I've gotta catch him if I can (oh)
Is that express, Mr. Station Man?
I woke up this mornin' with a smile on my face
Feelin' that the world, the world was a beautiful place
How long has that evening train been gone, ooh yeah?
(I want to know) How long has that evening train been gone?
(How long has the train been gone, whoo, whoo)
Ooh, ooh, ooh
On a scrap of paper was the train arriving information
His room was empty, and his closet's bare (closet's bare)
And not a single shirt was hangin' there (hangin' there)
How could that guy just up and leave me?
And what did I do that was so displeasing?
Only yesterday he held me tight
He told me everything, everything's gonna be alright
Oh, he said he loved me, and he cried
Oh yeah, said he loved me, and he cried
Oh, yes he did now
There must be an explanation (come on and move it)
Come on and move out the station
Can't you see that he's taking my world
And making me a sad, sad girl (come on and move it)
That's why I can't let go, that's why I gotta know
How long has that evening train been gone?
(How long has the train been gone, whoo, whoo)
I wanna know how long has the train been gone now?
Oh yeah, has that evening train been gone?
(How long has the train been gone, whoo, whoo)
Right now, can't wait a minute longer (I wanna know)
(How long, how long) has that evening train been gone?
(How long has the train been gone, whoo, whoo)
Right now, don't want to wait a minute longer (I wanna know how long)
I wanna know
How long, yeah, has that evening train been gone? (whoa, whoa)
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I heard my baby was standing at the station
Waiting for a train
I ran to the door with my heart in my hand (heart in my hand)
And all my future plans (future plans)
I've gotta catch him if I can (oh)
Is that express, Mr. Station Man?
I woke up this mornin' with a smile on my face
Feelin' that the world, the world was a beautiful place
How long has that evening train been gone, ooh yeah?
(I want to know) How long has that evening train been gone?
(How long has the train been gone, whoo, whoo)
Ooh, ooh, ooh

I wanna know how long has the train been gone now?
Oh yeah, has that evening train been gone?
(How long has the train been gone, whoo, whoo)
Right now, can't wait a minute longer (I wanna know)
(How long, how long) has that evening train been gone?
(How long has the train been gone, whoo, whoo)
Right now, don't want to wait a minute longer (I wanna know how long)
