The Station Seat


Who would have known what would come to be
as I sat waiting; a girl; for she
the one who always turned up late
the morning train was due at eight!
A girl I thought had smile so sweet...
the girl who sat on the station seat.

I couldn't really ask for anything more
when I saw her there in my local store!
A glance across the 'frozen aisle'
a look; a nod; and that beautiful smile
that caused my heart to skip a beat...
it was the girl who sat on the station seat!

Who would have thought we travel the same way
the eight o'clock train almost every day!
Time together; lifes 'ebb and flow'
a chance to chat and get to know,
but to discover I lived on the very same street...
as the girl who sat on the station seat!

Who would've guessed from all of this
that love would grow; sealed with a kiss!
The girl who always turned up late
saying yes to our very first date
no other girl swept me off my feet...
like the girl who sat on the station seat

Who would have thought after all this time
me just a little past my prime 
our little house; the children grown
time together to call our own
with all the things that we have done
with still so much we've yet begun
that I am the luckiest man there can be
with the girl from the station still sat next to me!
