J'entends Siffler Le Train

I thought it was better
To leave without a goodbye
I wouldn't have had the heart to see you again
But I hear the train whistle
But I hear the train whistle
How sad it is, a train whistling in the night

I could picture you
All alone, abandoned
On the platform, in the chaos of goodbyes
And I hear the train whistle
And I hear the train whistle
How sad it is, a train whistling in the night

I almost ran to you
I almost shouted to you
I barely managed to hold myself back
How far away you’re going
How far away you’re going
Will you ever have the time to come back?

I thought it was better
To leave without a goodbye
But I feel like now everything is over
And I hear the train whistle
And I hear the train whistle
I’ll hear that train whistle for the rest of my life
