Lyrics for 'The Metro'  by Berlin

[Verse 1]
I'm alone
Sitting with my empty glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies

[Chorus]
I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
Riding on the Metro

[Verse 2]
You wore white
Smiling as you took my hand
So removed
We spoke of wintertime in France
Minutes passed with shallow words
Years have passed, and still I hurt
Oh, I can see you now
Smiling as I pulled away
[Chorus]
I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand
"I'll love you always" filled my eyes
I remember a night we walked along the Seine
Riding on the Metro

[Synth solo]

[Chorus]
I remember a feeling coming over me
The soldier turned, then looked away
I remember hating you for loving me
Riding on the Metro

[Verse 3]
I'm alone
Sitting with my broken glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies
Sorry

[Outro]
I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
Riding on the Metro
