I'm alone sitting with my empty glass   My four walls follow me into my past   I was on a Paris train   I emerged in London rain   And you were waiting there   Swimming through apologies      I remember searching for the perfect words   I was hoping you might change your mind   I remember a soldier sleeping next me   Riding on the metro      You wore white   Smiling as you took my hand   So removed   We spoke of winter-time 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 a letter wrinkled in my hand   "I'll love you always" filled my eyes   I remember a night we walked along the Seine   Riding on the metro      I remember a feeling coming over me   The soldier turned, looked away   I remember hating you for loving me   Riding on the metro      I'm alone sitting with my broken glass   My four walls follow me into my past   I was on a Paris train   I emerged in London rain   And you were waiting there   Swimming through apologies      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
