lyrics

It's so hard to say
In a delicate way
When I woke up today you were

Long gone no warning at all
Falling back into a stranger's arms

I hope you have better luck
With that innocent look
You might never wake up from the

Dream where you're floating in air
Searchin' for love on a wing and a prayer

It's so hard to care
for such a pitiful pair
you just sat back and stared as the

Train train was jumpin' the tracks
Slow to think and too slow to react
It would take an engineer
to find its way back to the rails
