On a September morning She came without warning Said, "Ain't it a beautiful day" The dust on her feet And songs she would sing Singing 'bout flying away She sang about flying away And there's one place she wants to see Waiting on the last train to heaven She hopes that she makes it on time Waiting on the last train to heaven She hopes it don't leave her behind I've been hoping maybe Someone might save me Lately, I've gone off the rails I've been running too long Strung out and gone Tryin' to find my way out of this hell I gotta find my way out of this hell Waiting on the last train to heaven She hopes that she makes it on time Waiting on the last train to heaven She hopes it don't leave her behind Waiting on the last train to heaven She hopes it don't take too long Waiting on the last train to heaven She hopes it ain't already gone 'Cause this ain't where she belongs Waiting on the last train to heaven She hopes that she makes it on time Waiting on the last train to heaven She hopes it don't leave her behind Waiting on the last train to heaven She hopes it don't take too long Waitin on the last train to heaven She hopes it ain't already gone On a September morning She came without warning Said, "Ain't it a beautiful day"
