lyrics

In my hand is a letter you wrote me
Postage says forever more
And a picture of you smiling
By the kitchen door
I'm a thousand miles away
And a hundred years too late
I feel like a stranger
Who's forgotten his place

You took a train to Chattanooga
Left all your things behind
Said I've just got to loose you
Get you off my mind

It ain't nothing but trouble
If I stay here now
You and I we just struggle
Is there no way out
Is it worth the fighting
If it ends up like this
With you on the floor crying
And me at my end

You took a train to Chattanooga
Left all your things behind
Said I've just got to loose you
Get you off my mind

Don't let me let you leave so fast
This time
Don't let me let you leave so fast
This time

I took a train to Chattanooga
Left all my things behind
Said I've just can't loose you
No not one more time
No not one more time
