[Verse 1]
I was on a train
Somewhere in Spain
Sometime in the night
I drew up my knees
In second class
And watched in the blue light

[Verse 2]
Strangers beside me
Strangers across from me
They've closed their eyes
So far away from home
The empty stations echo
As we go dreaming by

[Chorus]
I miss you like crazy
I wish that you were here
Holding me

[Verse 3]
So many times
I see something
I wanna show you
Like the crazy man
Crying on his violin
I, I gave him two drachmas for you
[Verse 4]
And every city square
Pigeons everywhere
Fountains and painters
I sit upon the steps
My chin upon my knees
I must have watched millions of lovers go by

[Chorus]
I miss you like crazy
I wish that you were here
Holding me

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause you give me peace
You give me hope
I love you

[Verse 5]
Of course—there are other men
Sharing in the sways and bends
Of Paris and Rome
And though I do not know
Exactly what the difference is
I never asked them home
[Verse 6]
It made me realize
How beautiful and strange
Is the bird of love
Flies so differently
Cries so differently
From the bird of whatever the other

[Chorus]
I miss you like crazy
I wish that you were here
Holding me

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause you give me peace
You give me hope
I love you
Do I give you something too?

[Verse 1]
I was on a train
Somewhere in Spain
Sometime in the night
I drew up my knees
In second class
And watched in the blue light
In the blue light
In the blue light
In the blue light
