"Leaving Trains"
James William Hindle

why dont you come and sit with me
pull up a chair im listening
to everything you've got to say
and everything we're missing
right now the room is empty
and your presence lingers here
and all the while im missing you being near
you being near

and right now the room is empty
you left here an hour ago
but without this conversation
how would we ever know
and all i want is to have you near
to feel you breathing gently
this call is all we have this year
find me where you want me
where you want me

sleep comes when i need it.
and that isn't much these days
cause i'm finding myself dreaming
of you walking away
right now the room is empty
butyour presence lingers here
and all the while im missing you being near
you being near
