Trains

I still count the wagons
of every train I see
and base my fate off them
hoping it will lead you to me

One is for being stupid
two is for a kiss
the third brings a letter
I wouldn't want to miss

The most important one
is the fourth however
said to bring love
that lasts forever

And I think of my school days
when I was just a child
believing in old run-down trains
that made my heart beat wild

Now it's become a habit
one of many that I have
I don't wish for love no more
'cause it only made me sad
