Lyrics
Lyrics
Oh men of the mountains, ooh, ooh, oh
and the gods of the land, aah, aah, ah,
in the bergschrunds of heaven,
hold you in their ha-aa--ands,
holdi you in our hands.
holdi you in our hands.
Verse 1.
Women might reign in the high land,
women might reign in the sky,
all you have to do is get the Night Train
you can wave your existence goodbye.
Ooh--ooh--ooh -ooh, the Night Train is coming,
on board, find love in the mountains high,
where the eagles wheel and you spin and feel,
you know that your spirit can fly,
Verse 2.
Cities might fail and then crumble,
skyscrapers fall to the ground,
be a fire, be a flood, thunder rumble,
things are not so safe and sound
Oooh................... the Night Train is coming,
find a sleeper here when you climb aboard.......
Oooh................... the Night Train is coming,
find a sleeper here if you're sure;
leave the let downs of your cities,
come and hunt for something more.
In the mountain caves, our men are stored.
Verse 3
In the woods and the forests of tall trees,
the pines and the cones and high peaks,
steep, stony scree where the winds calls to me,
there is music wherever I sleep.
Chorus
Ooh--ooh--ooh -ooh, the Night Train is coming,
find a lover here when you climb aboard,
ride the storms and the waves of the winter
on a knife's edge of your snow board,
in the mountain caves our love is stored.
Oh, the men of the mountains, ooh, ooh, oh
and the gods of the land, aah, aah, ah,
in the bergschrunds of heaven,
hold you in our ha-aa--ands.
Ooh--ooh--ooh -ooh, the Night Train is coming,
find a lover here when you climb aboard.
Verse 3
In the woods and the forests of tall trees,
the pines and the cones and high peaks,
steep, stony scree where the winds calls to me,
there is music wherever I sleep.
Chorus
Ooh--ooh--ooh -ooh, the Night Train is coming,
find a lover here when you climb aboard,
ride the storms and the waves of the winter
on a knife's edge as sharp as a sword,
in the mountain caves are men are stored.
Oh, the men of the mountains, ooh, ooh, oh
and the gods of the land, aah, aah, ah,
in the bergschrunds of heaven,
they hold you in their ha-aa--ands.
they hold you in their hands,
in their hands,
Ooh--ooh--ooh -ooh,
oooooooh.....oooooooh......oooooooh
