This train tonight is empty, it's pretty boring, but
when I look out of the window it's beautiful, especially
when it's dark. I think I love the dark
But when the full moon floats
in the dark night the world
gleams in that mysterious light.
In that light I see myself. It is
a "me" that I have never seen before.
It frightens me and at the same time
I realise that I couldn't escape. There was only
one thing that I can do and that was
going back and face it.
My emotions were all mixed up
so I ran away as fast as I could
Driver! I shouted, it's you and me tonight*.
