Metro Lyrics

I'm alone
sitting with my empty gla*s
my four walls
follow me through my past
i was on a paris train
i emerged in london rain
and you were waiting there
swimming through apologies

i remember searching for the perfect words
i was hoping you might change your mind
i remember a soldier sleeping next to me
riding on the metro

you wore white
smiling as you took my hand
so removed
we spoke of wintertime in france
minutes pa*sed with shallow words
years have pa*sed and still the hurt
i can see you now
smiling as you pulled away

i remember the letter wrinkled in my hand
"i'll love you always" filled my eyes
i remember a night we walked along the seine
riding on the metro

i remember a feeling coming over me
the soldier turned, then looked away
i remember hating you for loving me
riding on the metro
