don't let the rain

Missed the train and it's almost midnight
I feel the chill coming close
I've been standing here for like forever
And the night's getting deep

Fewer people coming out to the platform
Desperate of the time
It's getting late, probably morn'n
And the train  hasn't yet come

And I look at my clock, and I look at the minutes
And I look at everyone, every face there is
And I hope to catch a single memory
And I hope, the train would stop the rain


Don't tell me it's going to rain,
not yet now, the train's still out
Don't want the rain to fall down now,
Not yet, not now
 
He's leaning on his back like it was his cradle
He's standing in the center of the train
He's staring blankly, deeply, wonderfully,
And I'm lost in thinking why
 
His stillness was moving slowly with the train
Like it was his motion
It stopped gently and doors slid open
He seems to get awakened by reality

How could time be so much a constraint
And space be an obstacle
My train is here now,
but his face was gone.

How could things be so confusing
I've waited hundred times
I've fallen many tears
in this train, in the rain.
