Midnight Train

Lyrics

Met her by the corner store
Staring at the wooden floor
She had a suitcase in her hand
Looking for a better land
She said, "Hey traveler, where you heading?
Can I come along?
I've been waiting for a spark
To sing a brand new song"

Gonna roll away on a midnight train
Gonna wash away all the heavy pain
Whisper sweet things in the dark
Waiting for a tiny spark
On a midnight train
Yeah, on a midnight train

The whistle blows a steady cry
Underneath the open sky
She looks at me and starts to smile
Says we can stay here for a while
Her eyes are reflecting the yellow light
As we disappear into the night

Gonna roll away on a midnight train
Gonna wash away all the heavy pain
Whisper sweet things in the dark
Waiting for a tiny spark
On a midnight train
Yeah, on a midnight train

Ooh, the wheels are spinning round
Leaving this sleepy town
Ooh, we are heading far away
Into a brand new day

Gonna roll away on a midnight train
Gonna wash away all the heavy pain
Whisper sweet things in the dark
Waiting for a tiny spark
On a midnight train
Yeah, on a midnight train

Just a midnight train...
Rolling through the rain...
