Hold the tears, try refrain your own
Never know hard to find
Watch your face, she blows my mind again

Line by Line Meaning
Close your eyes, say goodbye
Bid your farewell with a heavy heart by simply closing your eyes
Hold it tight, watch you cry oh no
Don't let go of the moment, instead witness the tears rolling down her cheeks
Seasons come, seasons go
Just like the changing seasons, life too keeps moving on
Winter's here, there she goes alone
As the cold winter sets in, she leaves on her own
Whistle blows and board the train
When the whistle blows, it's time to board the departing train
Hold the tears, try refrain your own
Fight back the urge to cry and hold onto the emotions
Never know hard to find
It's difficult to predict what the future has in store for us
Watch your face, she blows my mind again
As you observe her, she continues to amaze you
It was a clear light morning? storm in the day
The day started with clear skies, but quickly turned into a stormy affair

Close your eyes, say goodbye, hold her tight watch her cry oh no
Seasons come seasons go, winter's here there she goes alone
Whistle blows to board the train, hold the tears, try refrain your own
Never knowing when, hard to find, watch her face she blows my mind again
It was a clear light morning the birds were storming the day
Sun on the hill butterflies I feel, end of may
Just like a young boy driving to the summer of '69
I put my best face on and I run to find the girl that's mine
When I saw your face tonight
In your eyes I could see the light
And it's been so long I know
But I can still hear the song that was playing on the radio
Pull up a chair, take a seat when your ready to ride
Fill up your arms, hold my hand, put your head on my side
It's been a long time coming and I'm glad I'm spending time with you
Not sure when this will end so I might as well enjoy the view
When I saw your face tonight
In your eyes I could see the light
And it's been so long I know
But I can still hear the song that was playing on the radio
When I saw your face tonight
In your eyes I could see the light
And it's been so long I know
But I can still hear the song that was playing on the radio
When I saw your face tonight
In your eyes I could see the light
And it's been so long I know
But I can still hear the song that was playing on the radio
