Always Going

We slept awhile, awhile in a room
Where the trains going from
Cross the trains going to
I could never sleep very long next to you
For you could never wake one minute too soon

We [cast our mistakes?]
In the night just to prove
You would never marry me
I would never marry you

We could never leave
Never leave when we should
We were always going just when the going got good
We were always going just when the going got good

My love, light, my reason to fight
There once was a time when you thought I was right
In no time at all I proved you wrong
I told you I would

We called it a draw
We don't speak of it anymore

It was a race to the end from the start
You were so quick to fall
Just as quick to depart
In the beginning you thought that we were winning
But I knew
I knew in the end with nothing to defend
We would lose

My love, my life, my long absent friend
He who caught me up right at the end
You were so quick to love
And were so quick to leave
We told me you were hurt

Called it a draw
We don't speak anymore
