Bon Jovi Last Chance Train song lyrics

October leaves are falling, so am I

A harvest moon is calling me and I know why

The traffic's like a symphony in blue

In the autumn air I smell your sweet perfume

I miss you sitting cross-legged in this empty room

Yesterdays are eating me alive

I'm your angel, baby - I've got broken wings

I can't walk, I can't run, I can't drop until you're next to me, so the only thing...

Chorus:

You gotta meet me tonight

I'm on a last chance train

Leave a flower the station, I know my destination

Love bring me home again

You try to reach me but I've sailed away

You tried to read me but my words got in the way

The music's over but the dance has just begun

I wish that I could just get back to Baltimore

You know I'd scratch, I'd claw, I'd scream 'til I'm raw, just to fall down at your door

Chorus:

You gotta meet me tonight

I'm on a last chance train

Leave a flower at the station, I know my destination

Love bring me home again

Let the scarecrows laugh coming down the tracks

At the broken hearts that don't come back

'Cause the train has left the station with my pain

Let them forget my name, oh...

I'm on a last chance train

Sitting here I smoke my nineteenth cigarette

Now all that's left are ashes, butts and my regrets

It's your taste that I just can't forget

You gotta meet me tonight

I'm on a last chance train

Let the scarecrows laugh coming down the tracks

At the broken hearts that don't come back

We'll be laughing at them, crying in the rain

It's you and I again, oh.

Chorus:

You gotta meet me tonight

I'm on a last chance train

Leave a flower at the station, I know my destination

Love bring me home again

I'm on a last chance train

It's gonna bring me home to you

Oh, the last chance train

This time I'm coming through, coming through
