Down by the beach road
|
Crawling through the undergrowth
|
Stand by the railing
|
And look along
|
Put your ear to the ground
|
Listen for a while
|
Till all the tracks start
|
Humming and buzzing
|
Then the roar comes
|
And it's louder than the drums
|
Cause it's tons and tons and tons
|
Of steel going faster
|
|
Now maybe I'm on the bridge
|
And near the very edge
|
And I'm waiting for the train
|
To pass under
|
It's got fifteen carriages
|
Each one saying what it is
|
This is bigger than anything
|
That'll ever go past you
|
It drowns out what you say
|
And it blows the dust away
|
And it makes it's own way
|
We can't stop it
|
|
This train will take you anywhere
|
This train will take you anywhere
|
You want to go
|
|
I'm on the border
|
Berlin to Warsaw
|
I can't tell the things I saw
|
You'd see them anyway
|
It's the same where you go
|
Hanol to Bangalore
|
From Belize to Bogato
|
You can ride on
|
Get on at the platform
|
Keep your eyes on the land
|
And see the colours all change
|
And the world all open
|
|
This train will take you anywhere
|
And you can see anything
|
You can sleep or you can imagine
|
This train will take you anywhere
|
You want to go
|

This Train Will Take You Anywhere
