Lyrics

Thought I saw you
NicoFrom the train's back window
Late on last
Thursday night
Underneath the streetlight
From the train it looked like
You'd been there the whole night
A whisper in the midnight
That vanishes with daylight
December's cold was calling
And the snow was calling
I thought as
I rode back home
Why was she all alone
Nico, you know
I'm not your man,
I know that
You can't take a stand
On a midnight night train
A couple weeks slipped us past
On the train near
DundasShe got on at that stop
And as she sat down
I thoughtA lot of friends were talking
About Nico's late night walking
Lately you've been acting funny
Where'd you get that money?
Nico, you know
I'm not your man,
I know that
You can't take a stand
On a midnight night train
I moved a few seats over
And as I brushed her shoulder
She said, "don't I know you?"
Yeah, we had friends in high school
And as my stop got closer
I turned my back towards her
I don't know why
I did that
I wish I had told her that
Nico, you know
I'm not your man,
I know that
You can't take a stand
On a midnight night train
