The Metro

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm alone Sitting with my empty glass My four walls Follow me through my past I was on a Paris train I emerged in London rain And you were waiting there Swimming through apologies [Chorus 1] I remember searching for the perfect words I was hoping you might change your mind I remember a soldier sleeping next to me Riding on the Metro [Chorus 2] I remember a feeling coming over me The soldier turned, then looked away I remember hating you for loving me Riding on the Metro [Verse 2] You wore white Smiling as you took my hand So removed We talked about our time in France Minutes passed with shallow words Years have passed and still the hurt I can see you now Smiling as I turned away [Chorus 3] I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand "I'll love you always" filled my eyes I remember a night we walked along the Seine Riding on the Metro
