Lyric

I got one glove on the railing

One heel on the crack of night

Your note still warm in my pocket

Like a match I never struck right

The waiter folds up the silver

The clock blinks through the smoke

And you laugh like you know my ending

Before I get the joke

Don't call it love

Don't call it fate

The platform's humming

And I can't stay

My dress hem swings

Your eyes won't lie

The last train's calling

So let it slide

Last train, don't wait

Last train, don't wait

I'm a glass half full

At the cabaret gate

Last train, don't wait

Last train, don't wait

Kiss me like

We were never too late

You danced me past the barroom shadows

Past the cards and the broken glass

Now the moon on the open window

Looks like money I can't quite cash

The band keeps time with my heartbeat

That little ache in my chest

I’d say your name, but the city

Already knows the rest

Don't call it luck

Don't call it pain

The whistle rises

Through the rain

My hand on yours

Your breath on mine

The last train's moving

On borrowed time

Last train, don't wait

Last train, don't wait

I'm a glass half full

At the cabaret gate

Last train, don't wait

Last train, don't wait

Kiss me like

We were never too late

If I miss you

I'll miss you in style

With a grin on my mouth

And a tear that smiles

If you miss me

Meet me in song

At the end of the line

Where the brave go wrong

Last train, don't wait

Last train, don't wait

I'm a glass half full

At the cabaret gate

Last train, don't wait

Last train, don't wait

Kiss me like

We were never too late

Last train, don't wait

Last train, don't wait

Till the moon turns thin

And the footsteps fade
