Lyrics

This Train

Standing on the Charles Bridge in 1996
Watched them sing and play guitar, the American and the Brit
Tossed some money in the case then rode another train
It was six a.m. in Krakow, we were walking in the rain

Turning points and open doors, climb aboard and go
This train is headed somewhere and that?s all we need to know
See the track, don?t look back, climb aboard and go
Yeah this train is headed somewhere and that?s all we need to know

Crossed a few more borders on those rusty east-bound rails
Never found old Dracula but heard his finest tales
Six nights in a cheap hotel, our longest stay so far
A Transylvanian wedding band was playing CCR

Turning points and open doors, climb aboard and go
This train is headed somewhere and that?s all we need to know
See the track, don?t look back, climb aboard and go
Yeah this train is headed somewhere and that?s all we need to know

A thousand years or yesterday, sometimes it?s hard to know
Now I have two kids, a home, and places still to go
Never would have guessed back then this life?s a perfect fit
Yet still there?s times I think of them, the American and the Brit. . .

Turning points and open doors, climb aboard and go
This train is headed somewhere and that?s all we need to know
See the track, don?t look back, climb aboard and go
Yeah this train is headed somewhere and that?s all we need to know
