The
Lonesome
Train ~
You
announce
your
arrival as
you come
near
With a
woeful
lonesome
sound
One blast
of your
whistle is
what we
hear
As the
train
passes by
our town.
We can
hear the
clickity-clack
of your
wheels
As you
continue
on your
way
Are you
trying to
tell us
something
Don't we
understand
what
you're
trying to
say?
The
loneliness
you suffer
as you
travel
along
Never
having a
place to
call home
To forever
ride the
rails to
nowhere
To forever
continue
to roam.
This
woeful
sound that
you emit
Is a sound
that cuts
through
the night
No matter
where I am
or how far
away
Your sound
tells ME
of your
plight.
In some
ways I can
identify
with you
Loneliness
is so hard
to bear
Your sound
reverberates
through my
soul
As my
insides
scream out
in
despair.
Oh the
sound you
doth emit
Stirs up
emotions
buried
deep
inside
But still
I feel
drawn to
you
These
feelings I
can't seem
to hide.
Do other
people
hear your
lament
As you
travel
from town
to town
Announcing
your
arrival as
you draw
near
With that
woeful
lonesome
sound.
