Trains (Live)
[Verse 1]
Tie me to the track with my ear to the rail
But wait for the very last moment to save me
Or we can fight on top like a western, jump from car to car
Not noticing the tunnel is approaching
[Pre-Chorus]
And when we're in the tunnel, you become another person
And we lay down and let the darkness enfold us
[Chorus]
Trains, wish I was on that train
I wish I was on that train with you, train with you
Trains, something about a train
That always makes me think of you, think of you
[Verse 2]
On the Peking to Paris, you're a sculptor, I'm an heiress
I'm running from my husband, you're running from the law
But there's agents at the border so I hide you in my cabin
Of course I let you spend the night not knowing who you are
[Pre-Chorus]
And when I let you out, you become another person
And we lay down and let the darkness enfold us
[Chorus]
Trains, wish I was on that train
I wish I was on that train with you, train with you
Trains, something about a train
That always makes me think of you, oh
[Post-Chorus]
Wish I was on that train
Wish I was on that train with you
[Verse 3]
Two hobos in a boxcar, you and your 5 o'clock shadow
Me and my harmonica and a duffel on a stick
Or you're a soldier coming back from war
I'm the lover waiting on the platform
So steamy you're not sure it's me waving
[Pre-Chorus]
And when I close my eyes, I become another person
And we lay down and let the darkness enfold us
[Chorus]
Trains, trains
Oh, trains
Trains, wish I was on that train
I wish I was on that train with you
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, wish I was on that train
Wish I was on that train
Wish I was on that train
Wish I was on that train with you
Tie me to the track with my ear to the rail
But wait for the very last moment to save me
Or we can fight on top like a western, jump from car to car
Not noticing the tunnel is approaching
[Pre-Chorus]
And when we're in the tunnel, you become another person
And we lay down and let the darkness enfold us
[Chorus]
Trains, wish I was on that train
I wish I was on that train with you, train with you
Trains, something about a train
That always makes me think of you, think of you
[Verse 2]
On the Peking to Paris, you're a sculptor, I'm an heiress
I'm running from my husband, you're running from the law

[Pre-Chorus]
And when I let you out, you become another person
And we lay down and let the darkness enfold us
[Chorus]
Trains, wish I was on that train
I wish I was on that train with you, train with you
Trains, something about a train

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, wish I was on that train
Wish I was on that train
Wish I was on that train
Wish I was on that train with you
