You Hear a Train, a Train That Will Take You Far Away

Every night I hear the train I hear the doors open and close I want to take the train as far as it will take me I don't have a destination and at night time, I feel like I don't want to return But every morning I wake up knowing where I want and need to be I want to ride this train but I know it will be of no benefit for me It will be a night out on the town on the shadier side of town without a friend in the world leaving me vulnerable to whatever walks my way Home is where I should be but every night I'm immobilized not wanting to sleep
