Trains (Live) lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tie me to the track with my ear to the rail
But wait for the very last moment to save me
Or we can fight on top like a western, jump from car to car
Not noticing the tunnel is approaching

[Pre-Chorus]
And when we're in the tunnel, you become another person
And we lay down and let the darkness enfold us

[Chorus]
Trains, wish I was on that train
I wish I was on that train with you, train with you
Trains, something about a train
That always makes me think of you, think of you

[Verse 2]
On the Peking to Paris, you're a sculptor, I'm an heiress
I'm running from my husband, you're running from the law
But there's agents at the border so I hide you in my cabin
Of course I let you spend the night not knowing who you are

[Pre-Chorus]
And when I let you out, you become another person
And we lay down and let the darkness enfold us
[Chorus]
Trains, wish I was on that train
I wish I was on that train with you, train with you
Trains, something about a train
That always makes me think of you, oh

[Post-Chorus]
Wish I was on that train
Wish I was on that train with you

[Verse 3]
Two hobos in a boxcar, you and your 5 o'clock shadow
Me and my harmonica and a duffel on a stick
Or you're a soldier coming back from war
I'm the lover waiting on the platform
So steamy you're not sure it's me waving

[Pre-Chorus]
And when I close my eyes, I become another person
And we lay down and let the darkness enfold us

[Chorus]
Trains, trains
Oh, trains
Trains, wish I was on that train
I wish I was on that train with you
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, wish I was on that train
Wish I was on that train
Wish I was on that train
Wish I was on that train with you
