Silver Jews - Starlite Walker

Trains Across the Sea

Troubles, no troubles on the line
And I can't stand to see you
I can't stand to see you
When you're crying at home

Scotch and Penicillin
Please try Carlton
A cold black maple hanger
And husbands on the run

I just got back from a dream attack
That took me by suprise
And in there I met a lady
Her name was Shady Side
And she said

"It's been evening all day long
It's been evening all day long
And how can something so old, be so wrong?"

Sin and gravity
Drag me down to sleep
To dream of trains across the sea
Trains across the sea

Half hours on earth
What are they worth?
I don't know

In 27 years, I've drunk 50,000 beers
And they just wash against me
Like the sea into a pier
