Tom Waits - Downtown Train Lyrics
Outside another yellow moonHas punched a hole in the nighttime, yesI climb through the window and down to the streetIm shining like a new dimeThe downtown trains are full with all of those brooklyn girlsThey try so hard to break out of their little worldsWell you wave your hand and they scatter like crowsThey have nothing that will ever capture your heartTheyre just thorns without the roseBe careful of them in the darkOh, if I was the one you chose to be your only oneOh baby cant you hear me now, cant you hear me nowWill I see you tonight on a downtown trainEvery night its just the same, you leave me lonely nowI know your window and I know its lateI know your stairs and your doorwayI walk down your street and past your gateI stand by the light at the four-wayYou watch them as they fall, oh baby, they all have heart attacksThey stay at the carnival, but theyll never win you backWill I see you tonight on a downtown trainWhere every night, every night its just the same, oh babyWill I see you tonight on a downtown trainAll of my dreams they fall like rain, oh baby on a downtown trainWill I see you tonight on a downtown trainWhere every night, every night its just the same, oh babyWill I see you tonight on a downtown trainAll of my dreams just fall like rain, all on a downtown trainAll on a downtown train, all on a downtown trainAll on a downtown train, a downtown train
