Train Go By (home recording) Songtext
von Josh Ritter

Gonna go home, tell her I want her
Gonna make it alright, gonna
Do whatever it takes to save us
But for now I′m waiting, waiting

Gonna be more open-hearted
Take it back to where we started
But for now I'm stuck here at this light
I′m waiting on a train go to

Train go, train go, train go by
Train go, train go, train go by
Train go, train go, train go by
Just waiting on the train to go by

When we met it was the height of summer
Never thought that our days were numbered
Never thought we'd be here on this line
But for now we're waiting


I′m gonna be the man that I once was
Was I ever more than enough?
Was I ever really up for this?
I′m waiting on the train to go

Train go, train go, train go by
Train go, train go, train go by
Train go, train go, train go by
Just waiting on the train to go by

Day after day the cars roll by
I wanna talk to her but I
Can't seem to get the words quite right
And I know

She needs to hear me set things to straight
She needs me when it′s way past late
And I need to be there in the dark of night
But still I'm

I′ve never been so empty handed
Nothing turning out as I planned it
She's disappointed, and I′m just mad
But for now we're waiting, waiting


Love is patient, love is kind
They told us in a far off time
Now I'm her, and she′s still mine, still
We′re waiting, waiting on the train to go

Train go, train go, train go by
Train go, train go, train go by
Train go, train go, train go by
I'm just waiting on the train to go

Train go, train go, train go by
Train go, train go, train go by
Train go, train go, train go by
Just waiting on the train to go bye
