National Express

Once I lost my self-respect

I was stranded in blue and all by myself

Then my luck came up to me

I want to ride with you by the sea

Oh, my love

These traveling blues got a hold of me

It makes no difference what you do or where you stay

When you come home, you will know your name

A gypsy by the footprints standing in the rain

Here comes the National Express

Here comes the National Express

Here comes the National Express

True the station was empty then

Light bulbs were broken, announcements grim

Children to follow, how they talk

Children to follow, where they walk

Where's my home?

How could I lose this in a day?

It makes no difference what you do or where you stay

When you come home, you will know your name

A gypsy by the footprints standing in the rain

Here comes the National Express

Here comes the National Express

Here comes the National Express

Ancient survivor from the parish far away

Words fly through the station

Here comes the National Express
