I wave goodbye to her down at the station

With all her friends and family gathered there

Her mother said she'll keep the home fires burning

Because leaving home is such a sad affair



As we watch the train pull slowly from the station

Till it was swallowed up in the haze

We just stood there staring in the silence

She already seemed another world away



Now I'm standing on the platform of the Collingullie Station

Knowing that my dreaming days are through

Seems I lost my heart down at the Collingullie Station

As she disappeared from view



I recall the time that we had spent together

Walking down beside Old Man Creek

And I wondered why it was I never told her

Of the love that burned inside of me



Now I'm standing on the platform of the Collingullie Station

Knowing that my dreaming days are through

Seems I lost my heart down at the Collingullie Station

As she disappeared from view



Oh I'm standing on the platform of the Collingullie Station

Knowing that my dreaming days are through

Seems I lost my heart down at the Collingullie Station

As she disappeared from view
