Turnstile rotates once again Is it the end of the day or just the beginning Climb on to the crowded train Going home again, the night is dark and still Peer across the way And as if by fate I see a girl A girl who looks so sweet and pure I swear I've seen her before, on the first day of the world And start to imagine, a love with such passion It takes my breath away, it takes my breath away And I know I'd never leave her but it's the last time I'll see her So even though she'll never be my wife, she will never know Five minutes on the train was all it took to change my life I can see a home And a love that's grown, beyond my wildest dreams Children running in the yard Getting in the car, listening to their playful screams I stare into her eyes Still get butterflies every time she looks at me Colors fading in our hair But we don't care, all we need are our dreams Oh I can see my life go by through the window of the train But I don't recognize it cuz I'm looking straight ahead So much time is over and yet so much still remains So what if I went home with her instead?
