If you'd come a little closer I'll tell you how it all began He said, write a song, it doesn't even have to be long But I said the coming Train's already come and gone And I wonder where the street lights have gone And why everything's left me alone But He said, won't you come on home my dear, Because the coming train's already come and gone I said the coming train's already come and gone And now that time has past, those many years I've seen the light, oh I see the light And I know you'll always be there for me waiting on me Cause the coming train's already come and gone I said the coming train's already come and gone I said the coming train will come again
