Nine While Nine

When it's passing strange
And I'm waiting for the train
Caught up on this line again
And it's passing slowlyKilling time but it's better
Than living in what will come
And I've still got some
Of your letters with meAnd I thought sometimes
Or I read too much and I think you know
Let's drink to the dead lying under the water
And the cost of the blood on the driven snowAnd the lipstick on my cigarettes
Frost upon the window paneNine while nine
And I'm waiting for the trainShe said, "Do you remember a time when angels?
Do you remember a time when fear
In the days when I was stronger
In the days when you were here"She said, "When days had no beginning
While days had no end when shadows grew no longer
I knew no other friend but you were wild"
You were wildFrost upon these cigarettes
Lipstick on the window pane
And I've lost all sense of the world outside
But I can't forget so I call your nameAnd I'm looking for a life for me
And I'm looking for a life for you
And I'm talking to myself again
And it's so damn cold it's just not trueAnd I'm walking through the rain
Trying to hold on waiting for the train
And I'm only looking for what you want
But it's lonely here and I think you knewAnd I'm, and I'm waiting
And I wait in vain
Nine while nine
And I'm waiting for the trainAnd I'm waiting
And I wait in vain
Nine while nine
And I'm waiting for the trainAnd I'm waiting
And I wait in vain
Nine while nine
I'm waiting for the train
