O O I I I I M M P P O O M M I I

I'm alone, sitting with my empty glass

My four walls follow me through my past

I was on a Paris train. I emerged in London rain

and you were waiting there, swimming through apologies

Chorus

A5 B5 G5 D5

I remember searching for the perfect words

A5 B5 G5

I was hoping you might change your mind

A5 B5 G5 D5

I remember a soldier sleeping next to me

A5 B5 G5 A5 B5

Riding on the Metro

You wore white, smiling as you took my hand

and so we moved, we spoke of wintertime in France

Minutes passed with shallow words. Years have passed and still the hurt

I can see you now, smiling as you pulled away.

Chorus

I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand

"I'll love you always" filled my eyes

I remember the night we walked along the Seine

Riding on the Metro

Chorus

I remember a feeling coming over me

The soldier turned and walked away

I remember hating you for loving me

Riding on the Metro

I'm alone, sitting with a broken glass

My four walls follow me through my past

I was on a Paris train. I emerged in London rain

and you were waiting there, swimming through apologies

(sorry)
