Train

The stars have all fallen from an endless blank sky
The future's just a face I can't recall
I don't know where I'm going, but I'm going anyway
Wherever there's a road I'll call it home

Hard on the heels of an obnoxious summer draught
I took what money I had and left for good
With no one waiting for me and me waiting for no one
I guess there wasn't much else I could do

Hey little girl, are you waiting for a train?
There's no train in sight, only sand
But I know about a place where the water's clean and cool
There is room for two if you wanna come

My old man became a farmer when my mama gave birth to me
He worked on the same fields ever since then
Some nights you could see something twinkling in his eye
Something thirty winters would not kill

But I am not my dad, no, I'm not marrying to the land
She's too old and bitter for a bride
I got eyes to see and legs to stand upon
And ears to hear the horizon calling out

Hey little girl, are you waiting for a train?
There's no train in sight, only sand
But I know about a place where the water's clean and cool
There is room for two if you wanna come

(Darara, darara)

The stars have all fallen but they'll rise again in time
The future's just a blind man's face to me
I don't know where I'm going but as soon as I get there
I'm gonna drink until I get my fill

Hey little girl, are you waiting for a train?
There's no train in sight, only sand
But I know about a place where the water's clean and cool
There is room for two if you wanna come

Hey little girl, are you waiting for a train?
There's no train in sight, only sand
But I know about a place where the water's clean and cool
There is room for two if you wanna come
