A train pulses across the tracks
The young woman checks her ticket
Her beau stares longingly from the platform
A folded letter in his hand

The young woman checks her ticket
reading over the bold from where she left her love
a folded letter in his hand
a letter he holds on tightly as
a train pulses across the tracks
