Band In A Station Lyrics

In A Station Lyrics

Once I walked through the halls of a station  
Someone called your name  
In the streets I heard children laughing  
They all sound the same

Wonder could you ever know me  
Know the reason why I live?  
Is there nothing you can show me  
Life seems so little to give 

Once I climbed up the face of a mountain  
And ate the wild fruit there  
Fell asleep until the moonlight woke me  
And I could taste your hair

Isn't everybody dreaming?  
Then the voice I hear is real  
Out of all the idle scheming  
Can't we have something to feel? 

Once upon a time they used me indeed   
Tomorrow never comes  
I could sing the sound of your laughter  
Still I don't know your name

Must be some way to repay you  
Out of all the good you gave  
If a rumour should delay you  
Love seems so little to say
