Came and Went Away
That train has gone.
The one you are trying to catch,
To keep up!
The one delayed...
That finally arrived.
The one you questioned...
Whether to climb aboard and ride.
That train has gone.
The one you are trying to catch,
To keep up!
The one you said,
Would never come
So you fled?
The one you claimed
To wait for and remain?
Well...
While you were at play,
That train came and went away!
And to you there was no cost.
But the patience required...
You tossed away and lost!
