the train will stop at the end of the track
when the journey's over there's no turning back
the rear view mirror reflecting the past
of memories precious that hopefully last
the 'all aboard' shout warns at the start
that our engine of life is about to depart
we steam through life's gorge day after day
never dreaming at all it would be a short stay
perhaps we'll be wiser when we've reached this location
when our ride's nearly over when we're in our last station
