[Intro]
C G Am G x2
[Verse 1]
C Em7 Am G
Finally the moment’s come and here we stand,
C Em7 Am
And all the words have gone, along with all the plans
Dm G G7
And though the hands are surely moving on the clock,
C Am G
For us, this moment, time itself has stopped.
[Verse 2]
C Em7 Am G
Our early morning eyes still feel a little sore
C Em7 Am
And bodies sweetly aching from the night before.
Dm F G
I can feel the cold platform through my shoes.
C G Am G
There must be something to be said, but what's the use.
[Verse 3]
C Em7 Am
The wind picks up some paper and it blows it past our feet
C Em7 Am
We watch it, grateful that our eyes don't have to meet.
Dm F G
A screaming whistle rips the air
C Em Am G
And takes away the last seconds we have shared.
C Em7 Am
In still photographs the train begins its run
C Em7 Am G
And all the words I should've said suddenly have come.
Dm F G G7
Someone touches me and asks me for a light,
C G Am G
And wonders if I'm feeling quite all right,
C G Am G C G Am G
And I say, "Yes".
[Verse 4]
C Em7 Am C
On another platform, there's a train.
Em7 Am
The same old scene is to be shot again.
Dm F G7
The wind picks up some paper, and with it I shall ride
C G Am G C
Out through the door marked 'exit' into the world outside.
