|
Out of the night burning with light |
|
Train shining black, |
|
I won't look back, life is running |
|
Hoping some day someone will say |
|
I got it made |
|
Pull up the shade, let the sun in |
|
Down on the night train, |
|
I feel the starlight steal away |
|
Use up a lifetime looking for the break of day |
|
Border patrol looking through me |
|
Towns without names all look the same, |
|
I hear crying |
|
Paris to Spain, countries in pain |
|
Caught up in flight, feeling the sight, |
|
Europe dying |
|
Rolling on, hear the wheels singing, fever keep coming on so strong |
|
My ticket paid, trying to fade |
|
I hope I get there not just somewhere |
|
I was leaving |
|
Out in the dark all the wolves bark |
|
I fold my arms try to keep warm by believing |
|
Hard rain following on, cold wheels moving on |
|
Everybody they're so alone down on the night train |
