Royal Station 4/16

It's so hard to listen to these trains 
Outside my window here it comes again 
And it's calling me begging me 
Follow me down the track 
And it moans so dark and low 
Baby ain't comin' back

I refuse to believe 
It could happen to me and you
It's lonesome and it's hard and it's true 

I got this whiskey to take care of my lips
I got these long cool steel strings
At my fingertips
I ain't got nothing to soothe my aching soul 
Except this screeching and screaming iron 
To tell me where I ought to go 

I refuse to believe 
It could happen to me and you 
It's lonesome and it's hard and it's true

And I hear the train sigh 
And idle down below 
Why your love is so sweet and wild
Is something I'll never know 

It sounds like crying
It sounds like letting go 
Breathing and lying 
Sinking and dying slow 
And I watch from my window
Touching the cold glass sky 
As the train rolls down the track 
I say goodbye
