Salut!machaut: Train Song

She's on a train now
She's leaving everything and everyone behind
Without a goodbye
She's just not a sentimental kind
She needs to get away from it all
She needs to focus on herself
And he isn't good for her now
But she can't help him and he can't help himself

Well everything's changing today
Everything's going her way
She never realised before she opened her eyes
That she was heading for a better life
Heading for a better life

Oh, the local politician
She reads the local paper about the local thief
She's getting old and cynical
And finds it hard to fight for her beliefs
Her husband stays up and awake
Dinner's ready but she is always late
They used to be happy but they were divorced
'Cause the only thing left now is remorse

Well everything's changing today
Everything's going their way

They never realise before they open their eyes
That they were heading for a better life

What if you can't make it, what if you can't be changed?
I'll try anyway!
What if you can't make it, what if you can't be changed?
I'll try anyway!
Try anyway!

The fruit tree stands there so patiently
And for the first time it bears fruit
Adam and Eve play the piano
Things are changing at their root
It's not too late to start all over again
It's not too late to change your point of view

An old man ? tells me
About all the things he has gone through
Well everything's changing today
Everything's going our way

We never realise before we open our eyes
That we were heading for a better life
Heading for a better life
Heading for a better life
