Alkaline Trio - The Metro lyrics

I'm alone

Sitting with my empty glass.

My four walls

Follow me through my past

I was on a Paris train

I emerged in London rain,

And you were waiting there

Swimming through appologies.

I remember searching for the perfect words.

I was hoping you might change your mind.

I remember a soldier sleeping next to me.

Riding on the Metro.

You wore white,

Smiling as you took my hand.

So removed

We spoke of wintertime in France.

Minutes passed with shallow words.

Years have passed and still the hurt.

I can see you now

Smiling as you pulled away.

I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand.

"I'll love you always" filled my eyes.

I remember a night we walked along the Sein

Riding on the Metro

I remember a feeling coming over me

The soldier turned then looked away

I remember hating you for loving me

Riding on the Metro
