yes i saw you at the station
long distance smiles
you were leaving for the weekend
catching the 4:55
with your new friend for the season
another sad-eyed clown
helping to see
that your fantasy s go down
and i have to wonder to myself
why you have to go so far
drifting 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
