On a September morning
She came without warning
Said, "Ain't it a beautiful day"
The dust on her feet
And songs she would sing
Singing 'bout flying away
She sang about flying away
And there's one place she wants to see
Waiting on the last train to heaven
She hopes that she makes it on time
Waiting on the last train to heaven
She hopes it don't leave her behind
I've been hoping maybe
Someone might save me
Lately, I've gone off the rails
I've been running too long
Strung out and gone
Tryin' to find my way out of this hell
I gotta find my way out of this hell
Waiting on the last train to heaven
She hopes that she makes it on time
Waiting on the last train to heaven
She hopes it don't leave her behind
Waiting on the last train to heaven
She hopes it don't take too long
Waiting on the last train to heaven
She hopes it ain't already gone
'Cause this ain't where she belongs
Waiting on the last train to heaven
She hopes that she makes it on time
Waiting on the last train to heaven
She hopes it don't leave her behind
Waiting on the last train to heaven
She hopes it don't take too long
Waitin on the last train to heaven
She hopes it ain't already gone
On a September morning
She came without warning
Said, "Ain't it a beautiful day"
