Last Train Home
Star Ryan Lyrics

You haven't changed.
Despite all the time that has passed, the person being addressed has remained the same.

Stand in the light,
Come out of the darkness and let me see you clearly.

I need to see you,
It's important for me to have visual confirmation of your presence.

Uncover my eyes.
Remove any physical or emotional barriers that are preventing me from seeing you.

The tears coming down,
The person being addressed is crying.

Making lines on your face.
The tears have created visible tracks on their face.

One for each year, now
The tracks on their face represent the passing of time since they last saw each other.

That you've been away.
The person being addressed has been absent for a significant period of time.

We were only kids,
The artist and person being addressed were young when they first met.

We ran like water.
They moved quickly and effortlessly together, like water flowing downstream.

Your dad said, Stay away from my daughter.
The singer's love interest was prohibited from being with him by her father.

The sun was coming down when I said, Can't you just believe?
The artist was trying to convince the person being addressed to have faith in their love as the sun set.

And if you wait for me, I'll be the light in the dark if you lose your way.

And if you wait for me, I'll be your voice when you don't know what to say.

I'll be your shelter,

I'll be your fate.

I'll be forever,
The artist promises to love their love interest indefinitely.

Wait for me.
The singer implores their love interest to be patient and wait for them.

I'll be the last train,
The singer likens themselves to the last train of the night, representing the final chance for their love interest to be with them.

You were a storm,
The person being addressed was a tumultuous force in the artist's life.

It blew us away.
Their love was powerful and overwhelming.

I wouldn't leave you, but you couldn't stay.
The artist was willing to stay with their love interest, but external factors made it impossible for them to be together.

I told your dad, I love your daughter.

Hallie just believe.

And wait for me.

I'll be your last train home.
