Mirror at the Station
(Rene Finn)
Strophe 1:
Attention, an announcement!
Be careful at track nine!Your train departs shortly
at the indicated time.The destination of this train,
you know, will be your past.Because of this, you should hold on,
the trainīll be running fast.
Refrain:
Hope, you will need strength, you will need courage for your task.
Faith, you have to trust, and thereīs no question you should ask.
This is not a common place, this story has no end.
On the railway station of life, present and future and past will shake their hands.
Strophe 2:
And now an information
for all people at track eight!You must be a little patient,
īcause you will have to wait!Your next train has a short delay,
but still itīs on the way.Get in as soon as possible,
īcause future is the aim.
Refrain:
Hope, you will need strength, you will need courage for your task.
Faith, you have to trust, and thereīs no question you should ask.
This is not a common place, this story has no end.
On the railway station of life, present and future and past will shake their hands.
Bridge:
On track number ten waits a lonely passenger.
His train isnīt yet here, so he has time to look around.
On the other side of the platform stands a mirror tall,
it shows him that the present, counts in life at all!!
Solo
Refrain:
Hope, you will need strength , you will need courage for your task.
Faith, you have to trust and thereīs no question you should ask.
This is not a common place, this story has no end.
On the railway station of life, present and future and past will shake their hands.
