"Midday Train" lyrics

Midday Train

The sun makes no apologies
It falls against the broken sea
The wind blows through me
Like a worn-down boxer
He looks his victor in the eye
To find what's left of his own pride
The bell is ringing
And he's not the winner this time

And maybe someday
You'll come and save me
Just before the midday train comes
Crashing over
To take my number
Well could it be
I just believe
And only have an
Optimistic afternoon

If I could change the way I see
A glass half-full of guarantees
I'll have another
From fate's bartender
He looks his victim in the eye
Never thinks to ask him why
The bell is ringing
And I'm not the winner this time

And maybe someday
You'll come and save me
Just before the midday train comes
Crashing over
To take my number
Well could it be
I just believe
And only have an
Optimistic afternoon

And maybe someday
You'll come and save me
Just before the midday train comes
Crashing over
To take my number
Just before the midday train comes
Someday
So maybe someday
Yeah
Maybe someday
So maybe someday
Yeah, yeah
You'll come and save me
