Late Train (version 2)

Verse

Station's empty at two in the morning light

Your scarf still smells like my coat on the chair tonight

Two a.m. and the platform's breathing fire

Every stop is one more mile we don't desire

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel that engine pulling slow?

Something warm beneath our bones let go

Chorus

Riding every stop on this late train

Hands up, windows down, forget your name tonight

Nobody's watching, nobody's home

Just the wheels and us on a ride we call home

Verse 2

Dust on the seats like a map of our miles

Your jacket open where the collar once sealed

The engineer is counting stations left behind

We don't need no schedule when the dark turns kind

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel that engine pulling slow?

Something warm beneath our bones let go

Chorus

Riding every stop on this late train

Hands up, windows down, forget your name tonight

Nobody's watching, nobody's home

Just the wheels and us on a ride we call home

Bridge

No station left to reach before it turns

So turn right into me like we own these hours still

This is every slowburn I've ever known

Right here in this dark where nothing is small

Chorus

Riding every stop on this late train

Hands up, windows down, forget your name tonight

Nobody's watching, nobody's home

Just the wheels and us on a ride we call home
