作曲 : Davies, Lloyd

Every night, he comes home late,

And if she's lucky he'll just pass her by

Every night, she sits and waits

Though he never thought to ask her why

Broken table in the kitchen, neighbours wake and listen

He complains about the mess in the place

In the morning she'll forgive him, think of any reason

To forget about the state of her face

She's got a no return ticket on an overnight train

As it pulls away from Jericho Bay

She leaves a sleepy town station and a simple gold ring

As a souvenir of Jericho Bay

Everyday, she counted the hours

And the weeks she counted on the wall

Everyday, just a little older

Everyday just like the one before

She never told her mother, never told her father

Never wasted one single tear

Her secret safely hidden, no word of explanation

She packs her bag and closes the door

She's got a no return ticket on an overnight train

As it pulls away from Jericho Bay

She's got a secondhand suitcase, her Sunday dress on

And a photograph of Jericho Bay

She leaves a sleepy town station and a simple gold ring

As a souvenir of Jericho Bay

And she can hear the rails singing, way up to the moon

Hanging yellow over Jericho bay

And she'll never be back again.
