Always Going

We slept awhile, awhile in a room

Where the trains going from

Cross the trains going to

I could never sleep very long next to you

For you could never wake one minute too soon

We [cast our mistakes?]

In the night just to prove

You would never marry me

I would never marry you

We could never leave

Never leave when we should

We were always going just when the going got good

We were always going just when the going got good

My love, light, my reason to fight

There once was a time when you thought I was right

In no time at all I proved you wrong

I told you I would

We called it a draw

We don't speak of it anymore

It was a race to the end from the start

You were so quick to fall

Just as quick to depart

In the beginning you thought that we were winning

But I knew

I knew in the end with nothing to defend

We would lose

My love, my life, my long absent friend

He who caught me up right at the end

You were so quick to love

And were so quick to leave

We told me you were hurt

Called it a draw

We don't speak anymore
