| Tonight, my heart is full of a sad song
|
| My lonesome lover has taken off
|
| I’m wandering around on a cloud
|
| Empty-hearted and down and out
|
| It’s been a week, I think, since he rolled into town
|
| And it’s been years that I’ve heard these stories about
|
| This fellah he’s so brave and so alive
|
| Turning this world around from the out to the inside
|
| Well, our courtship was brief and magnetic
|
| I was singing at the corner bar
|
| And we both felt so romantic
|
| We took a walk with the moon
|
| Down to the train yard
|
| Well, it was too much for me
|
| My gypsy heart was inflamed
|
| Put me at the head of your list
|
| And don’t forget to call my name
|
| Well, I fell in love with a boy
|
| Who has a real live romance with a train
|
| Oh, my beautiful lover and friend
|
| This is exactly what I wanted
|
| And now I’m feeling so haunted
|
| And I can’t get you out of my mind
|
| I can’t forget him as he’s rolling away
|
| And it’s all I can do is just to stay here
|
| Is just to stay |
