Now the night train is waitin¡¯ to take me away
|
And I¡¯m still feelin¡¯ guilty cause you¡¯re wanting me to stay
|
Well I know, how I know, it¡¯s harder on you
|
But you said it yourself, there¡¯s nothing else we could do.
|
|
When the wheels start turnin¡¯, takin¡¯ me through the night
|
Out there in the darkness, there¡¯s a star shinin¡¯ bright
|
And it makes me feel better just to see it up there
|
I hope you¡¯re thinkin¡¯ about it, hope you know I still care.
|
|
So goodnight, yeah goodnight
|
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home
|
So goodnight, yeah goodnight
|
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.
|
|
Now I know you¡¯ve been waiting, but I¡¯ll be seeing you soon
|
Meanwhile I just lay here staring at the moon
|
And a light made of silver, through my window it creeps
|
And the train keeps on rollin¡¯, and it just rocks me to sleep.
|
|
So goodnight, yeah goodnight
|
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home
|
So goodnight, yeah goodnight
|
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home
|
|
So goodnight, yeah goodnight
|
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.
|
So goodnight, yeah goodnight
|
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.
|
|
Now from city to city, it¡¯s four hundred miles
|
And I¡¯m bound to wake up every once in a while
|
And it¡¯s then that I call out to some higher power
|
And then I¡¯ll go back to sleep cause I¡¯ll be home in an hour.
|
|
So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)
|
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)
|
So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)
|
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)
|
So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)
|
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)
|
So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)
|
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)
|
|
(fade)
|
I¡¯m going home (ooooh) tonight...
