"Train Songs"

Won't you wait for me on the platform where the plaid coats wait?
Won't you wait for me on the platform where the plaid coats wait?
'Cause I've been with you, and in your state
You're just a pliable, just a dead wait on me
You know, once I liked you, I liked you a lot
You were, you were everything, you were everything I'd got
Now you're poke-faced, like in a parking lot, and
I could pay you a dollar just to hollar a lot
Once I liked you, I liked you a lot
And you gave wonderful hugs, when I was with you
You gave wonderful hugs, when I was with you
In the slow mist, it wasn't and admirable trait
You were dancing with another and your standing so straight
She was like a pipe dream, not a bad position

She had long legs, had a big breast, she was an apparition
With tempestuous eyes, we said our goodbyes
Pulse stopped, was petrified
I saw you as you sat down and cried
Do you feel down under?
That's the end of your lies
Can't you capture a cultivated whim?
No, you can stick in your toe, but you can't jump right in
'Cause you say you've happened, but I know better
You can't right this wrong now, 'cause I've met her
And you gave wonderful hugs when I was with you
You gave wonderful hugs when I was with you
When I was with you
But now, she's with you
