|
The sun slips through the broken blinds |
|
Through the dusty panes |
|
And casts a shadow across the bed |
|
Where you and I once lay |
|
Your perfume lingers though you've gone |
|
My poor ol' heart will break |
|
I'm lonesome as the whistle |
|
On the evening train |
|
The jukebox plays a sad old song |
|
I pray to God above |
|
That you'll come riding back to me |
|
On a train of love |
|
I walk down to the station |
|
And watch the trains go by |
|
And stare into my coffee |
|
Just looking for a sign |
|
That one day you'll step off that train |
|
And forgive me for my crimes |
|
Take my hand and walk with me |
|
Till the end of the line |
|
The jukebox plays a sad old song |
|
I pray to God above |
|
That you'll come riding back to me |
|
On a train of love |
|
I never knew I was lucky |
|
Till my luck all slipped away |
|
I gambled with the Devil |
|
And the Devil made me pay |
|
My dreams never came true |
|
Like the roses never bloomed |
|
They withered and they died |
|
In this empty room |
|
The light is gone, the night is here |
|
The day is left behind |
|
The rumble of a distant train |
|
Slithers through my mind |
|
Your photograph is faded |
|
But the memory still remains |
|
Your eyes burn in the tail lights |
|
On the midnight train |
|
The jukebox plays a sad old song |
|
I pray to God above |
|
That you'll come riding back to me |
|
On a train of love |
|
The jukebox plays a sad old song |
|
I pray to God above |
|
That you'll come riding back to me |
|
On a train of love |
|
Train of love, train of love |
|
The jukebox plays a sad old song |
|
I pray to God above |
|
That you'll come riding back to me |
|
On a train of love |
|
The jukebox plays a sad old song |
|
I pray to God above |
|
That you'll come riding back to me |
|
On a train of love |
|
Train of love, train of love, train of love |
