I'm going away now sweetness, don't be sad Though tonight was the best night that we've had I'll put away my old suit and say goodbye Cause something is with us tonight
Oh come on now sweetness don't you cry The living here hasn't been easy for a while I'll put away my old shoes and say goodbye 'Cos something is with us tonight
Yeah I'm leaving on the next train that's blowing round the bend And I'll be there by the morning and I won't be back again 'Cos Ive just seen the ending to our story Well something is Yeah something is Yeah something is with us tonight
I'm going away to the station in the rain I'm sorry sweetness but theres nothing more to say I've put away all my old things, this is goodbye 'Cos something is with us tonight
Yeah I'm leaving on the next train that's blowing round the bend And I'll be there by the morning and I won't be back again 'Cos Ive just seen the ending to our story Well something is Yeah something is Yeah something is With us tonight
First time the longing in you wears the girl that grows it And if he relieves you know that then you've blown it And as life goes on you know you get to taste All you find 'Cos baby, you're my light Baby you're my light
Next time the feeling is the same, don't have to show it A window of belief is where you own it And as life goes on you know you have to face All you find 'Cos baby, you're my light Baby, you're my light Baby, you're my light
Baby, you're my light
Last time the years have gone the moment's on you know it But I believe in you and now I'll show it And as life goes on you know you don't have to hate All you find Baby, you're my light Baby, you're my light Baby, you're my light Baby, you're my light Baby, you're my light
I'm going away now baby's gonna be alright I just can't stand another lonely night Going away now baby, gonna take my shoes Gonna walk off these lonely blues And I'm going away now baby don't you think of me I'll be wandering somewhere you can't see I'm going away now baby gonna be alright It's just that I can't stand another lonely night
Smallwood, a joiner, takes carpenter out for a meal As soon as we dock see the captain to get a better deal My darkness in mind is concealed I'm in here alone and unreal But not anymore Not anymore
Up above and outside we looked towards the stern of the ship Weighed up the anchor and then I decided to slip Land well in middle and row I'm tired of deceiving my soul But not anymore Not anymore
Won't be at this station too long Took too many journeys alone But not anymore Not anymore
I leap the boat clear without paying my bills, I just left here Precious sight in my eyes as I take the last dive, I shed no tears I'm taking a guess This life is a mess But not anymore Not anymore
I'll see myself out of this world We don't get long and no rehearsal So I'll shade my eyes and watch the shadows grow 'Cos I'm not coming back
Maybe I've been too long in this town Even the happy faces just bring me down So maybe now it's time to move on And hold that torch again
But it's too hard a road I can't make it on my own Yes it's too high a climb It just breaks this heart of mine No way home
I just sit here and count the time Sometimes I'm frightened what's in my mind The things that just seem to stick in there I wouldn't want you to know
This is all the time that we have All those ways to love you never get it back So I'll wear shoes that walk the distance 'Cos I'm never coming back
And it's too hard a road I can't make it on my own Yes it's too high a climb Oh this broken heart of mine There's no way home
It's too hard a road I can't make it on my own Yes it's too high a climb For this broken heart of mine No way home No way home No way home No way home No way home
And I'm here the first standing here on the moon It took us years of work But we got through And yet now, I'm here just on my own So cry a tear for the man on the moon Cry a tear for the man on the moon Cry a tear for the man on the moon
And this spinning blue jewel here in my palm Far away down there just seems so small And yet, now I'm here I see it all So cry a tear for the man on the moon
And yet, now I'm here I see it all So cry a tear for the man on the moon Cry a tear for the man on the moon Cry a tear for the man on the moon
There's a long black train comin' down the line, Feeding off the souls that are lost and cryin'. Rails of sin, only evil remains. Watch out, brother, for that long black train. Look to the heaven's, you can look to the sky. You can find redemption staring back into your eyes. There is protection and there's peace the same: Burnin' your ticket for that long black train.
'Cause there's victory in the Lord, I say. Victory in the Lord. Cling to the Father and his Holy name, And don't go ridin' on that long black train.
There's an engineer on that long black train, Makin' you wonder if the ride is worth the pain. He's just a-waitin' on your heart to say: "Let me ride on that long black train."
But you know there's victory in the Lord, I say. Victory in the Lord. Cling to the Father and his Holy name, And don't go ridin' on that long black train.
Well, I can hear the whistle from a mile away. It sounds so good but I must stay away. That train is a beauty makin' everybody stare, But its only destination is the middle of nowhere.
But you know there's victory in the Lord, I say. Victory in the Lord. Cling to the Father and his Holy name, And don't go ridin' on that long black train.
I said cling to the Father and his Holy name, And don't go ridin' on that long black train.
Yeah, watch out brother for that long black train. That devil's drivin' that long black train.
