Ain't no way I could have told you,
As you shake your head in disbelief.
Ain't no way I could bring you comfort,
As you burst out into tears.
We're sitting here, both crying.
Watching faith now, watching faith now slip away.

It's like waiting for a midnight train
Passing by, passing by the other way,
Just passing by, passing by now.

[Instrumental]

Ain't no way I could have told you,
As you shake your head in disbelief.
Ain't no way I could bring you comfort,
As you burst out into tears.
We're sitting here, both crying.
Watching faith now, watching faith now slip away.

When realization dawns,
You slowly, you slowly walk away,
You walk away baby.
[Instrumental]
