Train

There's a thousand stars that I could chase

A million hours I could waste

To wind up somewhere I don't wanna be

There's a house on a mile-high mountain

The kinda money that you just quit countin'

That kind of thing don't do a thing for me

I should be climbin' that ladder to the top

Should be pushin' that limit nonstop

Bringin' every last second of the clock

Overtime

But there's a train I need to catch

There's a fire that needs a match

There's a girl I need to sing to sleep tonight

There's a sweet sound runnin' round my head

Like a heartbeat in your chest

Callin' me with a long lonesome town

I'll be steel wheels spinnin' and a-sparkin'

Kerosene lantern just runnin' through the darkness

Park this heart right where your heart is

And slow on down

I should be climbin' that ladder to the top

Should be pushin' that limit nonstop

Bringin' every last second of the clock

Overtime

But there's a train I need to catch

There's a fire that needs a match

There's a girl I need to sing to sleep tonight

You are waitin'

I'm anticipatin'

Holdin', feelin'

Every breath you're breathin'

I should be climbin' that ladder to the top

Should be pushin' that limit nonstop

Bringin' every last second of the clock

Overtime

I should be climbin' that ladder to the top

I should be pushin' that limit nonstop

Bringin' every last second of the clock

Overtime

There's a train I need to catch

There's a fire that needs a match

There's a girl I need to sing to sleep tonight

Sing to sleep tonight

Sing to sleep tonight

There's a girl I need to sing to sleep tonight
