Midnight train ...

I wait for the midnight train - 

Paul will be wearing a wedding suit - 

He'll remember music in a sunlit field - 

Two rivers ran through the cathedral city - 

I listen to hip hop in the waiting car - 

I glance at my father's watch -

Taxis draw up as the train approaches - 

Above the sleeping world is a starless sky -
