Fast Train

When I first left home I ran in a panic
Til I stole myself a car and found a heart mechanic
But, oh, I just broke down in the end
I sleep out every night inside a hollow tree or a corn crib in the heart of the deep country
I'm dreaming every night of my sweet baby, and I wonder if she's dreaming of me

One stop further on a fast train
I've been eating the miles and I'm covered in stains
Wherever I go this truth remains
I'm only one stop away from you

Drove down deep into the desert couldn't dry my tears
If I stared up at the sun for a million years
I stopped at each oasis and I looked at all the faces
But I couldn't seem to find one like the one I left behind
And, oh, it sure got cold at night

One stop further on a fast train
I've been eating the miles and I'm covered in stains
Wherever I go this truth remains
I'm only one stop away from you

Everywhere I go in this great big world I circle around my favourite girl
And it would only take an aboutface whirl to come running right back to you
I'll take a plane across the ocean, a ship across the sea
Til I handle my emotions when you're looking at me
And, oh, my body don't tremble and shake

One stop further on a fast train
I've been eating the miles and I'm covered in stains
Wherever I go this truth remains
I'm only one stop away from you
One stop away from you
One stop away from you
One stop away from you
