Lyrics

Silver Train


Thought I heard you call my name tonight
but I was only dreaming
in a cold blue light
from a train that comes through here
about this time
I don?t have a ticket
but every night I ride

Chorus:
Put my troubles on the silver train
Like I?ve been doing time and again
Hear it in the pouring rain
And there?s a peace I can?t explain
I think the whistle knows
all about pain
and there?s room for mine
aboard this train
Put my troubles on the silver train
All my worries on the silver train

Didn?t know one heart could beat so loud
I used to hear you breathing
now there?s not a sound
Never pictured
it would be like this in the end
There?s a cold blue light
coming round the bend
(repeat chorus)

Bridge:
I?ll cry my tears, this train is free
It comes from someplace I can?t see
and in the midnight hour
it is sent to comfort me
