matt dahan - passengers lyrics

south station always reminds me of the day
you went away
your letter said “i love you
but things will be better off this way”
we shared love for a season
but as that season came to pass, you disappeared
as 2170 comes into view
i say “h+llo, where do we go from here?”

i met you on the 2 west+bound train
to tallahassee
not a busy morning
but you filled the void right next to me
you said my eyes looked sad
like some figure in a magazine
i smiled as your face in front of the window
painted the landscape of my dreams

in life, we are all passengers
running away from the lives we knew
looking to start over new

electrical lines floating outside drew a picture of us
in a cartoon, frame by frame
we took a bus to st. marks
and watched humphrey bogart movies until morning came
i promised you i would be yours
and every word you said to me set my heart aflame
you held my hand until baltimore
you whispered that you would never forget my name
in life, we are all passengers
in this world that we all pass through
i’m glad i was sitting next to you

boston was our home for the winter
but all we needed was the apartment that we moved into
i said that if you ever went away
i would not rest, i would follow you
but one morning, i could smell your perfume
lingering on the way to the door
my fingers shook as i read your letter
i said “i’ve been here before”

it was cold on that december morning
as i watched your train get smaller ‘till it faded away
i don’t know where you went, i don’t know why you’re gone
but i still read your letter every day
you will know when to find me love
if you search for yourself in a railroad car
i made a promise that day to find you
wherever you are

in life we are all passengers
in life we are all passengers
in life we are all passengers
in life we are all passengers
south station always reminds me of the day
you went away
snow covered the ground outside
just like today
i bought myself a one way ticket to tallahassee
and i’m carrying a bag full of memories of you
seeing you smile once more
is my only thought as 2170 comes into view

and i say “h+llo
where do we go from here?”
