G Train L Train Lyrics

Can you see the long black train

Can you hear the church bell toll

Will you take me by the arm

As we walk away from the grave

Like an army in retreat

Like a fighter in defeat

Will you help me understand

Can you nurse my wounded mind

Can you hear my breaking heart

With its lonely beat

As the train pulls out

Like an army in retreat

Like a fighter in defeat

I want you back

I cannot lie

I want you back

I can't deny

I want you back

I was in a moonlight reverie

Memories swirled in my head

All the things that I was remembering

Seemed to bring me pain

Till I thought of you again

Can you see the empty track

Gleaming in the rain

Can you see the long black train

Fade away to grey

Like a ghost on All Souls' Day

Like an army in retreat

Like a fighter in defeat

I want you back

I cannot lie

I want you back

I can't deny

I want you back

I want you back

I cannot lie

I want you back
