This city is a lonely place without you

I'm here thinking of you
On this Tuesday afternoon
You took the early morning train
I wanted to go with you
But there was so much to do
Now I'm caught out in the rain

Is it raining where you are?
How long until you come home?
This city is a lonely place without you.

Splashing through puddles
Cars, bikes and busses rush by
My feet are wet, but the summer rain is warm
All my thoughts seem muddled
Everyone is in their own world
This city is a lonely place without you near

Waiting for the phone to ring
Searching for a song to sing
I'm waiting in the station a shelter from the rain
I should have gone with you today
My to-do list can wait
Night falls and I'm still waiting for your train.

Is it raining where you are?
Did you catch the late night train?
This city is a lonely place without you.
