作曲 : Davies, Lloyd
Every night, he comes home late, 
And if she's lucky he'll just pass her by 
Every night, she sits and waits 
Though he never thought to ask her why 
Broken table in the kitchen, neighbours wake and listen 
He complains about the mess in the place 
In the morning she'll forgive him, think of any reason 
To forget about the state of her face 
She's got a no return ticket on an overnight train 
As it pulls away from Jericho Bay 
She leaves a sleepy town station and a simple gold ring 
As a souvenir of Jericho Bay 
Everyday, she counted the hours 
And the weeks she counted on the wall 
Everyday, just a little older 
Everyday just like the one before 
She never told her mother, never told her father 
Never wasted one single tear 
Her secret safely hidden, no word of explanation 
She packs her bag and closes the door 
She's got a no return ticket on an overnight train 
As it pulls away from Jericho Bay 
She's got a secondhand suitcase, her Sunday dress on 
And a photograph of Jericho Bay 
She leaves a sleepy town station and a simple gold ring 
As a souvenir of Jericho Bay 
And she can hear the rails singing, way up to the moon 
Hanging yellow over Jericho bay 
And she'll never be back again.
