Last Train Home
Shaheen Jafargholi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The boy upstairs says he loves you more
You're wearing his shirt
I don't need to know anymore
It's all to late
Guess I'll head up west
I'll take and miss education
And you keep all the rest
I, I, I, I
Should have the signs
So it's me, myself and end of chains
I'd rather go blind

I'm on the last train home again
I'm on the last train home again

Somehow we lasted along the way
I was the fool on the hill
To your perfect days
Let's say our goodbyes
And plant for 5's
You go through all thee excuses
I'm still lost in your eyes

I, I, I, I
Should have the signs
So it's me, myself and end of chains
I'd rather go blind

I'm on the last train home again
I'm on the last train home again

How can we throw it all away
I'm gunna prove you'll never change
So write down beside your name
You blew out the flames

I'm on the last train home again
I'm on the last train home again
I'm on the last train home again
I'm on the last train home again

On the last train home
On the last train home




On the last train
On the last train home

Fabulous boy. The best talent to come out of Britain for a LONG time. Hope he's looked after.

Shaheen is amazing forever ^^

Struggling a little because of puberty. But I believe he will have a great voice after he goes through this. Even Michael Jackson the Great passed through puberty and you can tell if you listen to his songs when he was at that stage.

Aimee
