[00:19.00]
[00:24.14] My love stands before the open window
[00:29.89] Staring so far away
[00:35.67] He can almost feel the southern wind blow
[00:42.00] Almost touching my restless days
[00:48.06]
[00:49.73] He turns from the window to me
[00:55.24] Sad smile his apology
[00:59.74] Sad eyes reaching for the door
[01:06.51]
[01:07.50] Daylight loses to another evening
[01:13.10] And still he spares me the word goodbye
[01:18.82] He sits alone beside me fighting his feelings
[01:24.97] He struggles to speak but in the end I only cry
[01:30.94]
[01:32.85] Suddenly it's so hard to find
[01:38.46] The words that would help me speak my troubled mind
[01:44.48] He's offering these to me as if to be kind:
[01:49.05] There is a train everyday leaving either way
[01:55.13] There is a train everyday leaving either way
[02:00.68] There is a world, you know
[02:05.37] And there is a way to go
[02:10.50] And we'll soon be gone -- it's just as well
[02:17.13] This is my opening farewell
[02:23.39]
[02:35.27] A child's drawing is on the table
[02:41.06] A woman's silk lying on the floor
[02:46.94] And he would keep me here if I were able
[02:52.99] And lock us safe behind this open door
[02:59.57]
[03:00.83] But suddenly it's so clear to me
[03:06.43] I've asked him to see what he may never see
[03:12.36] Now his kind words find their way back to me
[03:16.70] There is a train everyday leaving either way
[03:22.63] There is a world, you know
[03:27.43] And there is a way to go
[03:32.49] And we'll soon be gone -- it's just as well
[03:39.07] This is my opening farewell
[03:46.51]
