Lyrics (unofficial)

Hi Kris
How is the weather down in New York
It's cloudy here in Providence
Is this a good time to talk

Well I wish I was going down to Lupo's tonight
To see 'The Departed'
I hope you're coming up this weekend
So I won't be too broken-hearted

Can't wait to marry you
To carry you across the threshold of my life
Can't wait to live with you
To give to you when you are my wife

Three long years on buses baby
Riding Amtrak
And every station from here to there say
I gotta get my baby back

Can't wait to marry you
To carry you across the threshold of my life
Can't wait to live with you
To give to you when you are my wife

Music brought us together, darling
So ??? [2:20] renders a part
They may say we are polar opposites
But you're my song, you are my heart

Can't wait to marry you
To carry you across the threshold of my life
Can't wait to live with you
To give to you when you are my wife

I'm gonna get on a train
And then I'm coming down fast
I said now come on baby
Got to make this thing last

I said I get on a train
I said I'm coming down slow
When I'm gonna get there
Baby nobody know

I'm gonna get on a train / Can't wait to marry you
And then I'm coming down fast / To carry you across the threshold of my life
I said now come on baby
Got to make this thing last

I said I get on a train / Can't wait to live with you
I said I'm coming down slow / To give to you when you are my wife
When I'm gonna get there
Baby nobody know
