Lyrics:

Will she come tonight? Will she make the train?
Too gentle, lonely heart, and here's the rain
An unlikely pair, they throw heavy hearts away
There's nothing either one has left to say

And though I don't get involved, yet I feel wanted
I know I'll lose all I love, but do I care?
I know it's not worth the pain of feeling haunted
But I'm falling to earth and there's no one there

Standing on the corner in a steady fall of rain
Standing on the corner you'll never need to see again
You've packed all your belongings in a case that's far too small
And you can hear him trying to reach you on a black phone in the hall

There's no way you can return home, not to his voice or to small wars
There's no way you can return home, not to his voice or to small wars

Standing on the corner in a steady fall of rain
Standing on the corner you'll never need to see again
And yet you opened up to me, as gentle as you are
While the thorns of life ripped through your skin to draw a little blood

There's no way you can return home, not to his voice or to small wars...

Will she come tonight? Will she make the train?
Too gentle, lonely heart, and here's the rain
