Wait for the Train Lyrics

Standing on the platform after forty days of rain

Waiting for the seven thirty headin' west

I don't remember why I ever came to this dark place

And I don't care much where I will end up next

Steel rails reach across the empty spaces

Oh the infinite sky

Sometimes there's not much you can do but buy a ticket

And wait for the train to arrive

I have never been much good at planning destinations

Can't seem to keep my pencil on the map

Nothin' really matters but these moments between stations

Writing endless letters that will never know a stamp

Steel rails reach across the empty spaces

Oh the infinite sky

Sometimes there's not much you can do but buy a ticket

And wait for the train to arrive

Standing on the platform as the sun begins to shine

Feelin' like a movie waitin' to be made

I may not play a leading role or speak a single line

It's enough to be an extra waitin' for the train

Steel rails reach across the empty spaces

Oh the infinite sky

Sometimes there's not much you can do but buy a ticket

And wait for the train to arrive

Wait for the train to arrive… wait for it now… wait for it…

Wait for the train to arrive
