Night Train

Wake up, wake up don't turn on the light
Hear that train howl as it rolls through the night
And it's calling to you
From the valley below
No stars, no stars and barely moonlight
Mists hang so low over New York tonight
And the sound is the only sensation that you seems to know

Cutting, so cutting a burning red light
Emerges from darkness to fill up your eyes
And you're lying in bed and the sound it starts to grow
Pitter and patter the rain it does fall
The train's growing faster as you seem to stall
And you look out your window
To find nothing at all

Midnight train, it comes in a dream
Following tracks that no one has seen
And when it comes for you there's nowhere to go
So let's do this right
Blow out your light
Follow the moon it will tell you what you need to know

Louder and louder the whistle does blow
The train echoes laughter as hot engines glow
And the path that it takes all depends on the places you know
Bright is the fire that churns out its steam
You go up in smoke and you're lost in a dream
But the train keeps on rolling
And still never is seen

Midnight train, it comes in a dream
Following tracks that no one has seen
And when it comes for you there's nowhere to go
So let's do this right
Blow out your light
Follow the moon it will tell you what you need to know

Midnight train, it comes in a dream
Following tracks that no one has seen
And when it comes for you there's nowhere to go
So let's do this right
Blow out your light
Follow the moon it will tell you what you need to know
