And you'll not leave late nor one minute too soon
These choices you have and these choices only
If you listen close, you can hear it soft and clear
When that train rolls in and you step on board
Now that whistle blows, yes, it’s already whinin'
No luggage allowed, no ticket required
Timetable’s set with exceptions for no one
You may sit beside fear and go worse than lonely
Or travel with trust and love and faith restored
And you might as well choose right now
You will not know that train's destination
It will be there right on time at the station
Even if midnight must come at high noon
And that headlight burns, yes, it's already shinin'
