TOO FAR DOWN THE LINE (Robert J. Purvis)

So many changes in such a short time

Oh my, how quickly time flies

I left you waving, you said you'd wait

Now, I return, but it seems I'm too late


You met somebody different

He's changed your life

I'm being pushed to one side

I won't try to hold you

I'll just say goodbye

Catch me a train and tomorrow this time


I'll be too far down the line

To ever come back

This train's making tracks

I'll be too far down the line

To wonder or care if I'm here or I'm there

So, it's one more glass of wine

Oh well, oh hell


I'll pretend that I hate you

Pretend I don't care

Really, you've broken my heart

All of my talking won't change your mind

I'll say farewell and tomorrow this time


I'll be too far down the line

To ever come back

This train's making tracks

I'll be too far down the line

To wonder or care if I'm here or I'm there

So, it's one more glass of wine

Oh well, oh hell


I'll be too far down the line

To ever come back

This train's making tracks

I'll be too far down the line

To wonder or care if I'm here or I'm there


I'll be too far down the line

To ever come back

This train's making tracks

I'll be too far down the line

To wonder or care if I'm losing my hair


I'll be too far down the line

To ever come back...
