Butter on a summer day, when she's around
I was on the track when the gate came down
Certainly I recognized
Those blood-shot rear-view mirror eyes of mine
I heard that whistle call my name
I almost drove away, but Megan I
Had a feeling that you would be on that train
So I just waited there for you

Another ride to another town where the air was clean
And the sun never goes down
Everyone was standing in a line
Between the landing and the stairs
I heard somebody call my name
I almost climbed the stairs, but Megan I
Had a feeling that someday you'd meet me there
So I just waited there for you

Butter on a summer day when I hear that name
Like a dream that never came true
Sat down on the track and waited for a train
To take me back to you
Somebody came and took my hand
I finally had to go
But Megan I just want you to know
That I waited as long as I could
