Silver Jews - Trains Across the Sea (Album Version)

Troubles,
no troubles
on the line.

And I can't stand to see you;
I can't stand to see you
when you're crying at home.

Scotch and penicillin;
please try Carlton,
a cold, black maple hanger,
and husbands on the run.

I just got back from a dream attack
that took me by surprise.
And in there I met a lady,
her name was Shady Sides,
and she said:
"It's been evening all day long;
it's been evening all day long, and
how can something so old be so wrong?"

Sin and gravity
drag me down to sleep
to dream of trains across the sea.
Trains across the sea.

Half hours on earth,
what are they worth?
I don't know.

In twenty-seven years,
I drunk fifty thousand beers,
and they just wash against me
like the sea into a pier.
