Somebody´s leaving on a midnight train
She´s got a one-way ticket to ride
And all she´s carrying is one small bag
And a heart that´s been broken
For the very last time
Waiting in a back room with a tea that´s gone cold
Cigarettes burnt to ashes in the tray
Her tears are gone now and all that remains
Is a heart full of memories
And a head full of pain
Seems like it should be raining
That’s the way it should be
At least the moon don´t have to shine so bright
She could do a little something but it´s not the right time
She feels too down to get high
And all those questions that need straightening out
All she wants now
Is plenty of time
Seems like it should be raining
That´s the way it should be
At least the moon don´t have to shine so bright
Like it´s shining tonight
