Lyrics
A trolley rolls through the station After the final train A scarf, a book, a single shoe All carried out of the rain Somebody left a umbrella Somebody left a hat The night collects the little things And keeps them safe like that Roll, little trolley, roll Carry what the night forgot Safe and sound, safe and sound Nothing's really lost, just found Roll, little trolley, roll A key that opened someone's door A mitten, small and blue A letter with no stamp on it Still waiting to come through The porter hums an old tune And sorts them one by one Each thing will have a morning When the waiting is all done Roll, little trolley, roll Carry what the night forgot Safe and sound, safe and sound Nothing's really lost, just found Roll, little trolley, roll Somebody will come back for you Somebody will come back for you Stay close, I'm right here Somebody will come back for you Roll, little trolley, roll Carry what the night forgot Safe and sound, safe and sound Nothing's really lost, just found Roll, little trolley, roll Roll, little trolley Roll, roll
