The Man in the Station (alternative take) Songtext
von John Martyn

There′s a man in the station and a train in the rain
There's a face in the mirror that′s showing the strain
There's a woman in the dark that's standing apart
There′s a love in the man that′s breaking his heart
But it's alright, I′m catching the next train home
The next train home


There's one more circle I′m dying to try
There's a piece of my head that′s asking me why
There's a piece of my heart that's dying to fly
There′s a baby and a woman that′s waiting to cry
But it's alright, I′m catching the next train home
The next train home

There's got to be a way for a lazy face
To get off and start loving the human race
There′s just got to be a way for a crazy face
To get out from under this paper chase
But it's alright, I′m catching the next train home
The next train home


There's a man in the station and a train in the rain
There's a face in the mirror that′s showing the strain
There′s a woman in the dark, just standing apart
There's a love in the man that′s breaking his heart
But it's alright, I′m catching the next train home
The next train home
