Long Train Ride lyrics
by Ben Lee



R.J. Johnson/B. LeeI pass a town without a nameSeen through the window of a trainA boy and girl stand side by sideThe train arrives, she kisses him goodbyeShe turns away then steps on boardHe thought he'd die but now he's sureBut as he thinks of one last thing to sayThe train just rolls awayI pass a station with no signAn old man gets on the train just in timeHe used to love this town despite the rainBut since his wife died it's not been the sameHe curses himself, he was weakAt his wife's grave he could not speakBut as he thinks that maybe he should stayThe train just rolls awayThe driver likes his coffee strong and hotThe train he drives is everything he's notHe watches the sad people board the trainThen laughs as he pulls out and rolls awayHits a hundred, no holding backThen his dear train comes off the trackThe news report said instant death, no painBut who's really to say?But who's really to say?The train just rolled awayThe train just rolls away
