Eric Idle - Five Minutes On The Train Lyrics

Turnstile rotates once again

Is it the end of the day or just the beginning

Climb on to the crowded train

Going home again, the night is dark and still



Peer across the way

And as if by fate I see a girl

A girl who looks so sweet and pure

I swear I've seen her before, on the first day of the world



And start to imagine, a love with such passion

It takes my breath away, it takes my breath away

And I know I'd never leave her but it's the last time I'll see her

So even though she'll never be my wife, she will never know

Five minutes on the train was all it took to change my life



I can see a home

And a love that's grown, beyond my wildest dreams

Children running in the yard

Getting in the car, listening to their playful screams



I stare into her eyes

Still get butterflies every time she looks at me

Colors fading in our hair

But we don't care, all we need are our dreams



CHORUS



Bridge

Oh I can see my life go by through the window of the train

But I don't recognize it cuz I'm looking straight ahead

So much time is over and yet so much still remains

So what if I went home with her instead?



CHORUS
