Yes I saw you at the station
Long distance smiles
You were leaving for the weekend
Catching the 4:55 With the new friend for the season
Another sad-eyed clown
Helping to see that you fantasies go down And I have to wonder to myself
Why you have to go so far
Drift with life s daydreams
Trying to play the star
I still remember when you said
Baby now let s get away
And I followed you like a schoolboy
I guess that s part of the game Now you call me say you re sorry
Give me long distance love
You say you d like to see me
Maybe just for a while
And you d meet me at the station
There on platform 9
And we d leave for the weekend
Riding for 4:55 But I ve played this scene too many times
To ever feel the part again
I don t really want to fake it
I already knew the end
So bye bye Cin-Cinderella
Everything just has to change
And the midnight blues are calling
I guess that s part of the game
