Southbound Train

Lyrics

Oh, I guess they'll say I've grown
 I know more than I wanted to know
 I've said more than I wanted to say
 I'm heading home
 Yeah, but I'm not so sure
 That home is a place
 You can still get to by train
 So, I'm lookin' out the window and I'm driftin' off to sleep
 With my face pressed up against the pane
 With the rhythm of my heart and the ringin' in my ears
 It's the rhythm of the southbound train
 Oh, where the wind starts to look like her hair
 Like clouds in her bright blue eyes
 As the sea and the shore fall and rise
 Like her breast as she breathes by my side
 And the moon is her lips as the sun
 Is headed on down to the sea
 Like her head as she lays down on me
 Until we reach ocean side
 Over and over, I hear the same refrain
 It's the rhythm of my heart
 And my sleepy girl's breathing
 It's the rhythm of my southbound train
 Oh, I suppose they'll say I should've known
 Or maybe I'm just feelin' old
 Like a lawyer
 With no one to blame
 I'm headed home
 Yeah, but I'm not so sure
 But home is a place
 That'll ever be the same
 So, we gather up our things and we head out in the cold
 And your eyes are where you carry the pain
 When I hear the whistle weeping, it's cryin' to the sky
 It's the rhythm of the southbound train
 It's the rhythm of the southbound train
