(B. Andersson / B. Ulvaeus)

 

Day is dawning and I must go
you’re asleep but still I’m sure you’ll know
why it had to end this way
you and I had a groovy time
but I told you somewhere down the line
you would have to find me gone
I just have to move along

Just another town, another train
waiting in the morning rain
Lord give my restless soul a little patience
just another town, another train
nothing lost and nothing gained
guess I will spend my life in railway stations
guess I will spend my life in railway stations

When you wake I know you’ll cry
and the words I wrote to say goodbye
they won’t comfort you at all
but in time you will understand
that the dreams we dreamed were made of sand
for a no-good bum like me
to live is to be free

Just another town, another train
waiting in the morning rain
Lord give my restless soul a little patience
just another town, another train
nothing lost and nothing gained
guess I will spend my life in railway stations
guess I will spend my life in railway stations
