This long trip has been a blessing.
Each mile bringing me closer to you.
Will you forgive me for leaving?
I'm not sure what you will do.

I sought my fame and fortune.
Time and distances pulled us apart.
I know now you are my riches.
Can you still allow me in your heart?

My mind drifts to those magical times,
Where we walked and talked as one.
How we'd face each day with hope.
And our problems were turned to fun.

The conductor called out the station.
My destination was just up just ahead.
Will you be standing there waiting?
Or will I face emptiness and dread?

I hear the trains whistle announcing,
My journey home is almost done.
The wheels were screeching loudly.
Would I see you standing in the sun?

With bag in hand, I hurried down the steps,
And searched the crowds waiting for the train.
But your pretty face could not be found.
My breaking heart was filled with pain.

Within an instant my longing turned to joy
As I saw you bursting through the doors,
Running to me with outstretched arms
Our love was restored for evermore.
