ABBA - Another Town, Another Train



Written by:Benny Andersson & Björn Ulvaeus
Recorded late 1972 or early 1973 at KMH Studio, Stockholm 

Lead vocal: Björn

Day is dawning and I must go 
you’re asleep but still I’m sure you’ll know 
why it had to end this way 
you and I had a groovy time 
but I told you somewhere down the line 
you would have to find me gone 
I just have to move along 

Just another town, another train 
waiting in the morning rain 
Lord give my restless soul a little patience 
just another town, another train 
nothing lost and nothing gained 
guess I will spend my life in railway stations 
guess I will spend my life in railway stations 

When you wake I know you’ll cry 
and the words I wrote to say goodbye 
they won’t comfort you at all 
but in time you will understand 
that the dreams we dreamed were made of sand 
for a no-good bum like me 
to live is to be free 

Just another town, another train 
waiting in the morning rain 
Lord give my restless soul a little patience 
just another town, another train 
nothing lost and nothing gained 
guess I will spend my life in railway stations 
guess I will spend my life in railway stations
