WESTBURY STATION

(P. Assirati)

I wrote these lyrics in the car on the way to meeting Nick at a family party. I'd promised him I'd finish them by then and hadn't. It's about an experience I once had on Westbury Station in Wiltshire. I was very down one day and on the way to work, and couldn't face going in. Instead I sat on the station platform for hours and watched the people going by, trying to decide not only whether I should go to work but whether to get on or under the next train.
