Southbound Train |
Oh, I guess they’ll say I’ve grown |
I know more than I wanted to know |
I’ve said more than I wanted to say |
I’m heading home |
Yeah, but I’m not so sure |
That home is a place |
You can still get to by train |
So, I’m lookin' out the window and I’m driftin' off to sleep |
With my face pressed up against the pane |
With the rhythm of my heart and the ringin' in my ears |
It’s the rhythm of the southbound train |
Oh, where the wind starts to look like her hair |
Like clouds in her bright blue eyes |
As the sea and the shore fall and rise |
Like her breast as she breathes by my side |
And the moon is her lips as the sun |
Is headed on down to the sea |
Like her head as she lays down on me Until we reach ocean side |
Over and over, I hear the same refrain |
It’s the rhythm of my heart |
And my sleepy girl’s breathing |
It’s the rhythm of my southbound train |
Oh, I suppose they’ll say I should’ve known |
Or maybe I’m just feelin' old |
Like a lawyer |
With no one to blame |
I’m headed home |
Yeah, but I’m not so sure |
But home is a place |
That’ll ever be the same |
So, we gather up our things and we head out in the cold |
And your eyes are where you carry the pain |
When I hear the whistle weeping, it’s cryin' to the sky |
It’s the rhythm of the southbound train |
It’s the rhythm of the southbound train |
