jill sobule - trains (live) lyrics
[verse 1]
tie me to the track with my ear to the rail
but wait for the very last moment to save me
or we can fight on top like a western, jump from car to car
not noticing the tunnel is approaching
[pre+chorus]
and when we’re in the tunnel, you become another person
and we lay down and let the darkness enfold us
[chorus]
trains, wish i was on that train
i wish i was on that train with you, train with you
trains, something about a train
that always makes me think of you, think of you
[verse 2]
on the peking to paris, you’re a sculptor, i’m an heiress
i’m running from my husband, you’re running from the law
but there’s agents at the border so i hide you in my cabin
of course i let you spend the night not knowing who you are
[pre+chorus]
and when i let you out, you become another person
and we lay down and let the darkness enfold us
[chorus]
trains, wish i was on that train
i wish i was on that train with you, train with you
trains, something about a train
that always makes me think of you, oh
[post+chorus]
wish i was on that train
wish i was on that train with you
[verse 3]
two hobos in a boxcar, you and your 5 o’clock shadow
me and my harmonica and a duffel on a stick
or you’re a soldier coming back from war
i’m the lover waiting on the platform
so steamy you’re not sure it’s me waving
[pre+chorus]
and when i close my eyes, i become another person
and we lay down and let the darkness enfold us
[chorus]
trains, trains
oh, trains
trains, wish i was on that train
i wish i was on that train with you
[post+chorus]
oh, wish i was on that train
wish i was on that train
wish i was on that train
wish i was on that train with you
