A Kiss Goodby?

. Cold metal trains pressing refrains on hard steel tracks, Racing ever, changing never the lyrics of clickety clack. Loved ones scurrying, hurrying, never worrying, They may never be riding back, In the cold metal trains pressing refrains on hard steel tracks, Racing ever, changing never the lyrics of clickety clack.
