It's been a whole month
And our clothes
Have gone through four washings
My stomach is full
And I've got my own spot
By the fire
I was sure like before
There'd be talk about
What it's been costing
To have taken two
Orphan train riders
In by surprise
I know it'll take
Many weeks
For new Pa to afford it
That promised sewing machine
The day we came around
'Delayed, not discarded' he says
And he won't just ignore it
And to think
That I didn't even care
To remember this town
Oh Wellington
Wellington
Be our home
Wellington
Wellington
Don't let us go
Through shattered glass
And Mama's hand
Our wagon wheels are
Rusted here
Wellington, stay near
Gone are the days
That we'd spend counting down
All the moments
To meet at high noon
In the yard by that
Old chicken wire
And I couldn't do more
When your apple or orange
Was stolen
Thank God new Pa took us in
When he did
You and I
Oh Wellington
Wellington
Be our home
Wellington
Wellington
Don't let us go
(Don't let us go)
Through shattered glass
And Mama's hand
Our wagon wheels
Are rusted here
Wellington, I'm here
I sleep through the night
And the morning feels like I'm dreaming
The warmth doesn't come
From the blanket or from the fire
With a permanent home
I can run, I can roam without leaving
We're no longer two orphan
Train riders left undesired
We're no longer
Two orphan train riders
We are
Desired
