Train Ride

Words of wisdom from a dear friend
Before her trip she stopped by and said:
Long ago on the train we took a ride
Lovers and friends all side by side
Swimming in the lake was a lot of fun
In the stormy nights we prayed for the sun
Words of wisdom from a dear friend
Before her trip she stopped by and said:
The days were gone and we got older
The youngsters rode and we got colder
Our paths of life crossed on the train
They brought joy then caused us pain
Words of wisdom from a dear friend
Before her trip she stopped by and said:
None of us belongs in here
Except for the lost and the ones who steer
When you get off you'll see the spring
Maybe you'll find your silver ring
Words of wisdom from a dear friend
Before her trip she stopped by and said:
When do you reach your station?
Will I continue to an unknown destination?
The train will continue with or without you
When it's time, keep your past behind you
Words of wisdom from a dear friend
Before her trip she stopped by and said!
