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 pain
I heard a heartbreak last night

Oh, how you cried when we said goodbye
As we stood at the station in the rain
A whipper bird sang 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 pine
I felt the cold icy fingers
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.
