Another cut rolls by on the lake line

And I'm alone, looking for your vision

I know it might be naïve to expect this train to turn around

But I demand you listen

I've been standing at your station

And I've been holding up your name

And the farther that I unravel, the farther you are away

And I've been waitin' on you, no denying

The hope that there's another truth

Oh, listen, I know I made a mistake

To think that letting you go was the same thing as holding you close

Another cut rolls by on the lake line

(I know I’m not one in a million)

(I know I’m not the greatest catch)

And I'm alonе

(But I’ve been devoted to your picturе)

Looking for your vision

(For seventeen years by now)

I know it might be naïve to expect this train

(And I’ve been waiting at your station)

(Holding up your name)

To turn around

(In the hope that you will let me explain)

But I demand you listen

I've been standing at your station

And I've been holding up your name

And the farther that I unravel, the farther you are away

And I've been waitin' on you, no denying

The hope that there's another truth

Oh, listen, I know I made a mistake

To think that letting you go was the same thing as holding you close
