Downtown Train |
Outside another yellow moon |
punched a hole in the nighttime, yes |
I climb through the window and down the street |
shining like a new dime |
the downtown trains are full with all those Brooklyn girls |
they try so hard to break out of their little worlds |
You wave your hand and they scatter like crows |
they have nothing that will ever capture your heart |
theyr’e just thorns without the rose |
be careful of them in the dark |
oh if I was the one |
you chose to be your only one |
oh baby can’t you hear me now |
Chorus |
Will I see you tonight |
on a downtown train |
every night is just the same |
you leave me lonely now |
I know your window and I know it’s late |
I know your stairs and your doorway |
I walk down your street and past your gate |
I stand by the light at the four way |
you watch them as they fall |
they all have heart attacks |
they stay at the carnival |
but they’ll never win you back |
Chorus |
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train |
where every night is just the same you leave me lonely |
will I see you tonight on a downtown train |
all of my dreams just fall like rain |
all upon a downtown train |
