October leaves are fallin', so am I
A harvest moon is callin' me and I know why
The traffic's like a symphony in blue

In the autumn air, I smell your sweet perfume
I miss you sittin' cross-legged in this empty room
Yesterdays are eatin' me alive

I'm your angel, baby, I've got broken wings
I can't walk, I can't run, I can't drop
Until you're next to me, so the only thing

You gotta meet me tonight, I'm on a last chance train
Leave a flower the station, I know my destination
Love, bring me home again

You try to reach me but I've sailed away
You tried to read me but my words got in the way
The music's over but the dance has just begun

I wish that I could just get back to Baltimore
You know, I'd scratch, I'd claw, I'd scream
'Til I'm raw, just to fall down at your door

You gotta meet me tonight, I'm on a last chance train
Leave a flower at the station, I know my destination
Love, bring me home again

Let the scarecrows laugh, comin' down the tracks
At the broken hearts that don't come back
'Cause the train has left the station with my pain
Let them forget my name, I'm on a last chance train

Sittin' here, smoked my nineteenth cigarette
Now all that's left are ashes, butts and my regrets
It's your taste that I just can't forget

You gotta meet me tonight, I'm on a last chance train

Let the scarecrows laugh comin' down the tracks
At the broken hearts that don't come back
We'll be laughin' at them, cryin' in the rain
It's you and I again

You gotta meet me tonight, I'm on a last chance train
Leave a flower at the station, I know my destination
Love, bring me home again

I'm on a last chance train
It's gonna bring me home to you
The last chance train's runnin' through my veins
This time I'm comin' through, comin' through
