Gabbi Bolt - Trainline Lyrics

He said I can't make up my mind I can't seem to find a reason to stay
She said I can't wait for you this time when you clearly just want an escape
And they both knew they were stuck in a blind spot on the phone in a 4am time slot
Not saying much but losing touch on the opposite ends of the line

Well he made a decision in his gloomy disposition that caught them both out
They couldn't do it anymore, have a relationship through a phone call
So with him on one side and her on the other
They had to fall out of love with eachother

The words heard over and over and over again
She heard them over and over and over and over again

Cause I'm getting too old to try to pretend
That I'm better at burning the candle from both ends
Because you're not quite my lover and you're not quite my friend
But now my bed feels colder without your head on my shoulder
Cause a trainline just tore us apart

Well time went by and things were fine though they never felt the same
He was working overtime and underpaid she was keeping busy to stay sane
When she came back home she saw a face a face she knew too well
So with impulsive thought and emotional recall into his arms she fell

And it went over and over and over again
It happened over and over and over and over again

Cause I'm getting too old to try to pretend
That you're not on my mind in my thoughts or in my head
Because you're not quite my lover and you're not quite my friend
But with your hands around my waist in a mess of lust and haste
A trainline still tears us apart

Oh lets play the game of things we never said
Statistically it should've ended
Statistically it should've ended
But oh facts and figures no they never let me down
Until now

I leave in the morning
This is getting exhausting
I know that you love me but we just wont work
And every time that I see you
I stay the night then leave you
Trying to remember a time when it didn't hurt

But it hurts over and over again
It hurts over and over and over again
It hurts over and over and over and over again
It hurts over and over and over and over and over again

Cause I'm getting too old to try to pretend
That I'm better at burning the candle from both ends
Because you'll never be my lover and you'll never be my friend
And though I love you just the same, even though the feeling's changed
A trainline will always
Be tearing us apart
