Like a jazz refrain the midnight train is callin'
|
Hey, you'd best go soon the late night moon is fallin'
|
Let the nightbirds whisper to themselves
|
This train pulls out at twelve
|
High tides breakin' on the shores, church bell tolls
|
|
Chorus:
|
|
There's a train that leaves tonight
|
I might just ride on
|
Nothin' here that makes me wanna stay
|
There's a train that leaves tonight
|
I might just ride away
|
|
I just can't hope to tell you 'bout the stillness and the quiet
|
'Bout the frozen fields so lonely and the train songs in the night
|
About the sounds of nothin' moving, night fields all aglow
|
I simply got to leave you my heart cries out to go
|
|
Chorus

Theres A Train That Leaves Tonight
