All Aboard
ALL ABOARD
Nobody ever misses the very last train.
Oh sure you can dawdle during the day
And maybe be kinda late for a train or so
Or even miss an important connection
Or a fast track to somewhere -
Occasionally you might be early for a train
Which is somehow cancelled till another day.
But nobody ever misses their last train.
When the chips are down
And there is no other to come
You get to the train
Just as if it were meant to be -
There is no next one just behind…
You simply must get this one
And when it leaves the station
And disappears into the darkness
No one is left on the platform.
Nobody ever misses the last train.
