Brief Encounter Songtext
As we reached the station
The train was standing by
I tried so hard to keep myself from looking in your eye
And as I glanced away and saw the case
I felt the tears come rolling down my face
And looking through the window
I heard the whistle blow
I needed no reminding it was time for you to go
But standing there beside the railway track
I told myself that you′d be coming back
My haunted memory serves me very well
No need to spell it out, as if you couldn't tell
I briefly thought there was a moment to retain
Too good a memory to never live again
So near, but so far away
Start your journey today
Take a ticket for a fast train
Meet me down the line
Take a ticket for a fast train
Don′t waste any time
Oh, waste no time
I've waited patiently to see you once again
Each letter that I write, the message is the same
So near, but so far away
Leave now, please don't delay
Take a ticket for a fast train
Meet me down the line
Take a ticket for a fast train
And don′t waste any time
Take a ticket for a fast train
Meet me down the line
Take a ticket for a fast train
Don′t waste no time
Take a ticket for a fast train
Don't waste no time
Take a ticket for a fast train
Meet me down the line, the line, the line
The line, the line, the line, the line
The train was standing by
I tried so hard to keep myself from looking in your eye
And as I glanced away and saw the case
I felt the tears come rolling down my face
And looking through the window
I heard the whistle blow
I needed no reminding it was time for you to go
But standing there beside the railway track
I told myself that you′d be coming back
My haunted memory serves me very well
No need to spell it out, as if you couldn't tell
I briefly thought there was a moment to retain
Too good a memory to never live again
So near, but so far away
Start your journey today
Take a ticket for a fast train
Meet me down the line
Take a ticket for a fast train
Don′t waste any time
Oh, waste no time
I've waited patiently to see you once again
Each letter that I write, the message is the same
So near, but so far away
Leave now, please don't delay
Take a ticket for a fast train
Meet me down the line
Take a ticket for a fast train
And don′t waste any time
Take a ticket for a fast train
Meet me down the line
Take a ticket for a fast train
Don′t waste no time
Take a ticket for a fast train
Don't waste no time
Take a ticket for a fast train
Meet me down the line, the line, the line
The line, the line, the line, the line
