Sleepy Engine Songtext
von Thrift Store Cowboys

I′ve got a case, I've got it bad for you
Show me inside
Your eyes may lie, but my heart shows the truth
When I′m gone you wouldn't try
Well my occupation, it drives my day again
Another town without a name
Is where I wake up from dreaming of you
A dream that ended all the same
So I'll just lay here on the tracks
While you′re sleeping on the train
Cover me up and close my eyes
My heart′s the only thing to break
When the rail silently shakes
Your sleepy engine runs on by
What good am I now to anyone
Now that you broke me right in two


I was never good enough for me
Good enough tonight
All I wanted was you
Well your locomotive, it makes no special stops
Its destination won't complete
This heart just lays here on that steel
While another broken body bleeds
So I′ll just lay here on the tracks
While you're sleeping on the train
Cover me up and close my eyes
My heart′s the only thing to break
When the rail silently shakes
Your sleepy engine runs on by
My heart's the only thing to break
When the rail silently shakes
Your sleepy engine runs on by
