Lyrics The Leaving of Nancy

In comes the train and the whole platform shakes

It stops with a shudder and a screaming of brakes

The parting has come and my weary soul aches

I'm leaving my Nancy oh

But you stand there so calmly determinedly gay

And you talk of the weather and events of the day

But your eyes tell me all that your tongue doesn't say

Goodbye my Nancy oh

And come a little closer

Put your head upon my shoulder

And let me hold you one more time before the whistle blows

My suitcase is lifted and stowed on the train

And a thousand regrets whirl around in my brain

And the ache in my heart is a black sea of pain

I'm leaving my Nancy oh

And you stand there so calmly

So lovely to see

But the grip of your hand

It's an unspoken plea

You're not fooling yourself and you're not fooling me

Goodbye my Nancy oh

And come a little closer

Lay your head upon my shoulder

And let me hold you one more time before the whistle blows

But our time has run out and the whistle has blown

And here I must leave you standing alone

We had so little time and now the time's gone

Goodbye my Nancy oh

And as the train starts gently to roll

And as I lean out for to wave and to call

I see your first tears trickle and fall

Goodbye my Nancy oh

And come a little closer

Put your head upon my shoulder

And let me hold you one more time before the whistle blows

And come a little closer

Lay your head upon my shoulder

And let me hold you one more time before the whistle blows

And let me hold you one more time

Before the whistle blows
