Tahiti 80: "The Train" Lyrics

The heavy rain

Feels like tears on her face

Waiting for the train

She's leaving for a new place

Cause she and i

Something wasn't right

We were so uptight

She had to say goodbye

She's going to the city

She's going to the city

She's leaving her people

And all her troubles behind

The roses in the garden that she planted long ago

I put them in a vase so i'd get a chance to know

What it was like to live

With someone who could do this

What it was like to live

With someone now she doesn't miss

And yes she's so happy

Like she never thought she could be

She's going to the city, on her runaway train

I didn't know what was going on

Too busy to care about what you were

Living through
