Jason Silver - 12 Girlfriends - Until the Train Comes

Ive been waiting for the train
Ive been standing at the station.
Every whistle call has beckoned me,
But here I stand.
Ive tried sleepin in the rain
Covered with the Sunday paper
Yellow windows shining in the street
And here I stand.

I cant move, I wont bend
I might break if I get up again
I cant sing, afraid Ill cry
I cant live because you said goodbye
Darkness holds me in her arms
I cant see a way to leave her charms
Ill keep holding on,
Until the train comes to take me.

Ive been packing up my bags
Holding onto every moment.
Loaded down with painful memories
So I cant move.
The baggage man has got my ticket
Luggage piled all around me
I would love to travel light
But Im too scared.
[chorus]

Here the whistle blowin,
see the steam risin, smell the coal burning, baby
Thats my soul hurtin
Maybe I can flag this engine down,
Get the break-man on the ground,
Find my way, All Aboard, this train is
Leaving town.
[instrumental]
[chorus]
