The Longest Train
The longest train I've ever seen come rollin' through this town* Is passin' by me slow enough that I could just climb down From this truck, under the gates and swing up through the doors Of an open boxcar, settle in on a blanket on the floor
[Chorus:] And I don't know what is waiting when that train runs out of track But here's my chance to change my luck No room for doubt, no time to pack 'Cause who knows when that train is coming back
The longest train I've ever seen is calling me to ride With names of distant cities and graffiti on the side Places I have never been are scattered down the line Stories I might live to tell and lives I wish were mine
[Repeat Chorus:]
[Bridge:] And now those gates are rising up, with bells and flashing lights As the longest train I've ever seen slowly fades out of sight
Repeat Chorus
