I Heard a Heart Break Last Night

I heard the pitter patter

Of a slow winter rain

I heard the lonesome whistle

Of a far away train.



As I sat in the silence

Broken only by a train

I heard a heartbreak last night.



Oh, how you cried

When we said goodbye

As we stood at

The station in the rain

And a whisper was saying

From a pine tree close by

When we heard

The whistle of your train.



I heard the moans of sobbing

Of the wind in the sign

I felt the cold icy finger

Of fear from the spine.

For I knew in my heart

You'd never be mine

And I heard a heartbreak last night.



For I knew in my heart

You'd never be mine

And I heard a heartbreak last night...
