At the station where the trains grind their wheels against the rails
I met her one fine day, and she stole my heart away
Oh the sparkle in her eyes brought sunshine to my life
Backless dress and fancy pearls, charming face and golden curls
She was music to my ears, if I lived a thousand years
I could never be so glad, oh that moment that we had
People pass, they find each other, fall in love and stay together
But my blue sky turned to gray when she rode that train away
Thank you girl for now I know how it feels to be alone
What it means to be in pain, all aboard the heartbreak train
The wheels are spinning on the track, but she's never coming back
Once you know it's all in vain, all aboard the heartbreak train, heartbreak train
The faces from the train, all are blur and look the same
Glancing up and down the line, till I hear that whistle whine
And that train just rolls along, like a lonesome country song
I'm moving down the track but she's never coming back
All the passengers they know how it feels to be alone
What it means to be in pain, all aboard the heartbreak train
The wheels are spinning on the track, but she's never coming back
Once you know it's all in vain, all aboard the heartbreak train, heartbreak train
