When he saw her first she was crying, on the morning train
He was drawn to her and he held her hand and he dried her tears away
She said "I gave up my life for him, I gave all that I had
I gave up my world for him"
And I'm not going back

Love comes in like a miracle
To take away the pain
They were always lovers
Strangers on a train
Love come in like a messenger
To save the world again
They have always been together
Strangers on a train

They were lost in deep conversation and the miles went by and by
When the train came into their station
They just had to travel on
He said "I'll give up my life for you, I'll give all that I have
I'll give up my world for you"
And I'm not going back

Love comes in like a miracle
To take away the pain
They were always lovers
Strangers on a train
Love come in like a messenger
To save the world again
They will always been together
Strangers on a train
