Train in the distance |
|
She was beautiful as southern skies the night he met her |
|
She was married to someone |
|
He was doggedly determined that he would get her |
|
He was old, he was young |
|
From time to time, he'd tip his heart |
|
But each time she withdrew |
|
Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance |
|
Everybody thinks it's true |

Train in the distance |
|
Well, eventually, the boy and the girl get married |
|
Sure enough, they have a son |
|
And though they both were occupied with the child she carried |
|
Disagreements had begun |
|
And in a while, they just fell apart |
|
It wasn't hard to do |
|
Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance |
|
Everybody thinks it's true |
|
Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance |
|
Everybody thinks it's true |
|
Two disappointed believers |
|
Two people playing the game |
|
Negotiations and love songs |
|
Are often mistaken for one and the same |
|
Well, now the man and the woman, they remain in contact |
|
Let us say it's for the child |
|
With disagreements about the meaning of a marriage contract |
|
Conversations hard and wild |
|
But from time to time, he just makes her laugh |
|
She cooks a meal or two |
|
Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance |
|
Everybody thinks it's true |

Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance |

What is the point of this story? |
|
What information pertains? |
|
The thought that life could be better |
|
Is woven indelibly into our hearts and our brains |
|
Like a train in the distance |
|
Train in the, train in the |
