I Miss a Lot of Trains
When the train pulls in the station
You'll be waiting at the track
You're having troubles sleeping nights
And you want me to come back
That old train just rolls on by
You're gonna know I never came
'cause I sleep good and I miss a lot of trains

I sleep good and I miss a lot of trains
That one-way trek to no man's love
I will never ride again
I used to lie awake like you
Just calling out your name
But now I sleep good and I miss a lot of trains

You're standing in the station
I can see you in my mind
You think that I'll return again
But you're so wrong this time
Your sleepless eyes and selfish heart
Will be waiting there in vain
While I sleep good and I miss a lot of trains

I sleep good and I miss a lot of trains
That one-way trek to no man's love
I will never ride again
I used to lie awake like you
Just calling out your name
But now I sleep good and I miss a lot of trains
Now I sleep good and I miss a lot of trains
