Description
The cliche, "you don't know what you have until it's gone" echos loud and clear. Written from a point of sobering heartache, the realization of a precious love lost is all too apparent. Hopefully, this will encourage couples to appreciate each other and realize what they have right in front of them and not neglect the relationship that is rare and beautiful..
Lyrics
Southbound Train Like all the stories go I've got to catch that southbound train, Before it pulls away In the night she left with the rain Hunger drove her heart away For words I couldn't say She would be the only one To see that I never was alone She loved me, although I never gave her love So, now she goes away In the midnight hours I think I feel your loving arms I turn on the TV, I'm thinking "Man, what have you done?" I think I'm going insane and I've got to get you back today And let you know I should have never let you go I let a diamond turn to coal I let my love fade away Pain is the price I pay Out of the palm of my hand she rose And looked through the rubble for remains Of our romance yesterday Time ran out on her world Like a thief, stole away my girl And I know I have myself to blame 'Cause now she's writing from another state In the midnight hours I think I feel loving arms I stare at the TV, I'm thinking, "Man, what have you done?" I think I'm going insane and I've got to get you back today And let you know I should have never let you go So I sit at the station and cry I should have never let our love Become a knot undone In the midnight hours I think I feel your loving arms I stare at the TV, I'm thinking, "Man, what have you done?" I think I'm going insane and I've got to get you back today And let you know I should have never let you go So I sit at the station and cry I should have never let our love Become this knot undone Like a part of me has died I took for granted the love we made And now it's all too late... I sit alone and I watch the rain....
