I heard the pitter-patter   Of a slow winter rain   I heard the lonesome whistle   Of a far away train      As I sat in the silence   Broken only by a train   I heard a heartbreak last night      Oh, how you cried when we said goodbye   As we stood at the station in the rain   A whisper was saying from a pine tree close by   When we heard the whistle of your train      I heard the moans of sobbing of the wind in the pine   I felt the cold icy fingers of fear from the spine   For I knew in my heart, you'd never be mine   And I heard a heartbreak last night      For I knew in my heart, you'd never be mine   And I heard a heartbreak last night
