Lyrics
She walks away without looking back at me
She boards the train at Convent Station
I try to wave but there's a tidal wave of pain
This is no cause for celebration
She's going home to something better, I suppose
If there was ever a reason to cry
This might be 'cause we just said our last goodbye
I know the game, she'll be coming back to me
We all need time to reach forgiveness
The grass, they say, is greener on the other side
I've given all that I can give this
She's going home to something better, I suppose
If there was ever a reason to cry
This might be 'cause we just said our last goodbye
Isn't it funny how irony seems to be jaded
The harder I try I realize love is overrated
But now I know hope leaves you more frustrated
Might as well leave it alone...
I wake up dazed as the 8:05 blows by
This bench is cold at Convent Station
But still the chill, it brings a comfort over me
I few more hours to salvation
Is she coming home to something better, I gotta know
If there was ever a reason to cry
This might be 'cause we just said our last goodbye
