LYRICS
She’s awoken from her sleep
The guard shouts out ‘Tickets please’
Pulls up the blind, takes in the view
Frost on the window, morning dew
I wonder who she is and where she goes
No-one knows
I wonder what it is she’s looking for
She’s looking for
Are we the same?
Strangers travelling on a train
With no place to go
Does she ever smile?
A million stories behind sad eyes
But just one life
He looks up from his magazine
I wonder if he’s what he seems
A creased old suit, a frayed cuff
Just like him in need of love
I wonder who he is and where he goes
No one knows
I wonder what it is he’s looking for
He’s looking for
Are we the same?
Strangers travelling on a train
Qith no place to go.
Sitting alone, a million stories left untold
But just one life
And this train knows where it’s going
This train knows where it’s been
Its path marked out before it
Unlike those travellers it’s carrying
Are we the same?
Strangers travelling on a train
With no place to go
Mile after mile
A million stories lost in time
But just one life
