Song of despair after losing a loved one. |
Train to Nowhere by E C Wesch (chorus) As I gaze through the window, watch the world speed by. On a train bound to nowhere, 'neath the big blue sky. Like a dream, life is passing, in the blink of an eye. So I sit by this window, and wave good-by My heart's split in pieces, and the tears roll down, on a face that is painted, like Emmett-the-Clown. As my tears pool beside me, and litter the ground, I see my reflection, and sad ly frown. The evening skies, in a nightmare race. O'er the grassy plains, In a frantic pace. Though my heart keeps beating mindful of its place. I sorely miss, your handsome face. As the lightning flashes in a blinding glare, and the willows sway in the cool night air. A cold seeps inside me without room to spare. and it chills my heart without a care. I long for the warmth of your embrace. Imagining your kisses upon my face. My heart beats in rhythm to the clacking wheels. I know now how a lost love feels. Now I gaze through this window, watch the world speed by. On a train bound to nowhere, 'neath the big blue sky. Like a dream life is passing, in the blink of an eye So I sit by this window, and wave good-by. |
