Amos Lee – Night Train

Posted on April 7, 2013, under Amos Lee.

I’ve been working on a night train Drinking coffee, taking cocaine I’m out here on a night train Trying to get us safely home Well in a little country station Somewhere out in the midwest I see the people out there waiting Heart beating in my chest And I’m thinking about a woman Who I would put no one above

I’m not looking to replace her Just need someone to love Well I’m out here on my night train Drinking coffee, taking cocaine I’m out here on a night train Trying to get us safely home And I’m living in the city Where the noise, it never stops Hammers pounding on the pavement Whistles from traffic cops Nobody looks you in the eye here Walking around with clinched fists I’ve been searching for a simple place Don’t know if it exists There’s a sunrise out there calling my name I can see her moving, I can see her moving Well at a certain time of night, now I’ll become one with the wind Where there isn’t a beginning

And there is no end Oh when everything is flowing Everything is on time And I know that we’re all going To the end of the line Well I’m out here on my night train Drinking coffee, taking cocaine I’m out here on a night train Trying to get us safely home Well I’m out here on my night train Drinking coffee, taking cocaine I’m out here on a night train Trying to get us safely home Trying to get us safely home Trying to get us safely home
