Lyrics
Freight Train (4,56)
Every time I see your face
I feel how undone I have become
Your eyes make their own fingertip trace
in case the parts are greater than the sum
A nerve of steel ain't equipped to feel
every limit to my pleasure and pain
I would not sympathise with any talk of compromise
Here's where you run me over like a freight train...
Maybe I am forsaken like a blind man in the rain
Maybe I am mistaken all over again
Baby don't come rakin' through what's left of my remains
Here's where you run me over like a freight train
Here's where you run me over like a freight train...
And if you ever get back from Palookaville
If you could ever stand to see my face again
I'll be the one in the corner
with a hole cut out of my heart
I ain't the man, I ain't the man you once knew
And if you ever get lonely won't you write so I can know
There are so few things to be thankful for these days
But don't you send it to me here
Somebody's opening all my mail
Like I said I ain't the man, I ain't the man that you once knew...
Maybe I am forsaken like a blind man in the rain
Maybe I am mistaken all over again
Baby don't come rakin' through what's left of my remains
Here's where you run me over like a freight train
Here's where you run me over like a freight train...
Every time I see your face
I feel how undone I have become
Your eyes make their own fingertip trace
it seemed so innocent and now it just seems dumb...
A nerve of steel
ain't equipped to feel
every limit to my pleasure and pain
I would not sympathise with any talk of compromise
Here's where you run me over like a freight train
