Train Song (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

All the way home we felt we had a chance
To review the coulds before we were born
And to invite a new game of can’ts

Absorbed in the clouds a voice from afar said
"with the right device you can make a pattern grow
Or you can tune up your car"

So we stayed on the train admiring the time
As the lights of the city drew near
We drank a little wine

They were blurry and green outer space in between
With a depth and a form unclear
Then we saw it up ahead

A flickering lantern lit up on the tracks
In the rugs that had covered up the bridge
From the banks of a river to the bed
Of the valley upstream to the place we live

The glass on the lantern cast back the sight
Of a drive-in movie we drove by below
We saw where we’d been in the pictures within
Projecting all the places we would go
So we follow the scene and flowed up your steps
To a smooth wooden floor in a trance
The train whistle melody woved through the trees
And in through the door to signal the turns of a dance

Train Song (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Well i broke down in e. st. louis
On the kansas city line
And i drunk up all my money
That i borrowed every time
And i fell down at the derby
And now the night’s black as a crow
It was a train that took me away from here
But a train can’t bring me home
What made my dreams so hollow
Was standing at the depot
With a steeple full of swallows
That could never ring the bell
And i come ten thousand miles away
With not one thing to show
Well it was a train that took me away from here
But a train can’t bring me home
I remember when i left
Without bothering to pack
You know i up and left with
Just the clothes i had on my back
Now i’m sorry for what i’ve done
And i’m out here on my own
Well it was a train that took me away from
Here but a train can’t bring me home

Won’t you wait for me on the platform where the plaid coats wait?
Won’t you wait for me on the platform where the plaid coats wait?
‘Cause I’ve been with you, and in your state,
You’re just a pliable, just a dead wait on me.
You know, once I liked you, I liked you a lot.
You were, you were everything, you were everything I’d got.
Now you’re poke-faced, like in a parking lot, and
I could pay you a dollar just to hollar a lot.
Once I liked you, I liked you a lot.
And you gave wonderful hugs, when I was with you.
You gave wonderful hugs, when I was with you.
In the slow mist, it wasn’t and admirable trait.
You were dancing with another and your standing so straight.
She was like a pipe dream, not a bad position.
She had long legs, had a big breast, she was an apparition.
With tempestuous eyes, we said our goodbyes.
Pulse stopped, was petrified.
I saw you as you sat down and cried.
Do you feel down under?
That’s the end of your lies.
Can’t you capture a cultivated whim?
No, you can stick in your toe, but you can’t jump right in.
Cause you say you’ve happened, but I know better.
You can’t right this wrong now, cause I’ve met her.
And you gave wonderful hugs when I was with you.
You gave wonderful hugs when I was with you.
When I was with you,
But now, she’s with you.
