I Wish I Were A Train - Steve Wariner

Lyin' awake at night

Thinkin' about my life

Train rumblin' thru our town

Walls shake like they’re coming down.

You sleep like nothing’s wrong

You don’t know tomorrow I’m gone

You don’t hear the whistle’s sad cry

You don’t see the tears in my eyes.

I wish I were a train rolling on a track

With three choices

Stop on a dime, move ahead or go back

But I can’t go back and face the pain

So I lie here and wish I were a train.

Baby once we had it all

This ain’t nobody’s fault

Seems like everything changed

Love just up and moved away.

On a train rolling on a track

With three choices

Stop on a dime, move ahead or go back

But I can’t go back and face the pain

So I lie here and wish I were a train.

I wish I were a train rolling on a track

With three choices

Stop on a dime, move ahead or go back

But I can’t go back and face the pain

So I lie here and wish I were a train…
