I'm waitin' at the station I can choose my destination I'm a free soul, I got no chains But it's a long time between trains I took a long nap I read a whole book I got nice legs I got decent looks And I'm not one who complains But it's a long time between trains And who'd have thought it all those years That I would find myself back here Feeling restless and ignored Starin' at the schedule board Wondering why the fates above Always route love through Miami And sometimes lovers smile their smiles While I count the ceiling tiles And, well, give or take a few There's one thousand fifty-two But that depends if you include The eighty-eight out in the hall Yes, I'm waiting at the station With my old friend sublimation You know the Wright boys designed planes Musta been a long time between trains
