I heard that warnin' whistle blowin'
I knew that train was comin' fast
The sound of the wheels was hypnotisin'
I could not move from it's path
I just stood there, glued to the tracks

[Chorus]
It was a long time comin'
She was a heartbreak waitin' to happen
And I went right along
It was a long time comin'
Before I knew what hit me, she was gone
She was so gone

Those cold black eyes that burned right through me
Could melt a heart of steel
I just pulled her closer to me
'Cause I loved the way it made me feel
Underneath her wheels

[Chorus]

It was a long time comin'
Before I knew what hit me, she was gone
Before I knew what hit me, she was gone
She was so gone, so gone

So gone
So gone
