He can almost feel southern winds blow
Now my kind words find their way back to me
You'll soon be gone, it's just as well
And a woman's silk is lying on the floor
He turns from his window to me
What you may never see
Struggles to speak but in the end can only cry
There's a world you know, there's a way to go
I would keep them here if I were able
Sad smile, his apology
There's world you know, got a way to go
Gently touching his restless day
Suddenly it's so clear to me
So I'm offering ease to him as if to be kind
That I'd ask you to see
And still he spares me the words 'Goodbye'
Sits alone beside me, fighting his feelings
A child's drawing's left there on the table
To speak his troubled mind
Suddenly it's so hard to find
There's a train every day leading either way
This is my opening farewell
I'll soon be gone, it's just as well
Daylight loses to another evening
Sad eyes reaching to the door
The sound of the words
To lock you safe behind it's open door
There's a train every day leaving either way
