When your good nights have been said
|
And you are lying in bed
|
With the covers pulled up tight
|
And though you count every sheep
|
You get the feeling that sleep
|
Is going to stay away tonight.
|
That's when you hear it coming
|
That is when you hear the humming of the
|
Midnight train, here again
|
Can¡¯t explain that midnight train, that midnight train
|
|
Starlight Express, you must confess
|
Are you real, yes or no?
|
Starlight Express, answer me yes.
|
I don't want you to go.
|
|
Want you to take me away
|
But bring me home before day-light
|
And in the time between
|
|
Take me to everywhere
|
But don't abandon me there
|
Just want to say I-ve been.
|
I believe in you completely
|
Though I may be dreaming sweetly of the
|
I can hear the train, here again
|
Can¡¯t explain that midnight train, that midnight train
|
|
Starlight Express, you must confess
|
Are you real, yes or no?
|
Starlight Express, answer me yes.
|
I don't want you to go.
|
Starlight Express, answer me yes.
|
I don't want you to go.
|
|
Starlight Express, you must confess,
|
Are you real, yes or no?
|
Starlight Express, answer me yes.
|
I don't want you to go.
