Last Train To London Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Packed my winter coat for the road
'Cause this house is getting cold
What was once so comfortable
Just don't feel like home
Scattered memories on the floor
From the life we had before
Got my ticket, I'm out the door
I can't stay no more

[Chorus]
So I'll be on the last train to London
Well, I'm so sorry, darling
Couldn't give you what you wanted
So I'll be on the last train to London
Oh, you can tell your lies
But don't you dare say that I didn't ever try, try
Ooh, ooh
I'm goin' back to London tonight

[Verse 2]
I'll be starin' out through the glass
When I'm miles down the track
'Cause, tonight, my bags are packed
And I won't look back
I'll forgive you for what you said
And the wreckage that you left
Even though we made a mess
Know it's for the best
[Chorus]
So I'll be on the last train to London
Well, I'm so sorry, darling
Couldn't give you what you wanted
So I'll be on the last train to London
Oh, you can tell your lies
But don't you dare say that I didn't ever try, try
Ooh, ooh
I'm goin' back to London tonight

[Bridge]
I'm turnin' off all the lights
I'll lock the door behind
And, when I tell you goodbye
You'll know I mean it this time
I'm turnin' off all the lights
I'm goin' home tonight

[Chorus]
So I'll be on the last train to London
I hope, one day, you find someone to give you what you're wantin'
But I'll be on the last train to London
Oh, you can tell your lies
But don't you dare say that I didn't ever try, try
Ooh, ooh
I'm goin' back to London tonight
[Outro]
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Woo, ooh-ooh, ooh)

What did Mimi Webb say about "Last Train To London"?
Genius Answer

With the journey the album goes on, it’s so nice to be able to do something so stripped-back—just me and the piano. It’s got that element where I can really go for it live, and that moment is going to be so special for the shows.
