Train Go By - Josh Ritter

Gonna go home, tell her I want her

Gonna make it alright, gonna

Do whatever it takes to save us

But for now I’m waiting, waiting

Gonna be more open-hearted

Take it back to where we started

But for now I’m stuck here at this light

I’m waiting on a train go to

Train go, train go, train go by

Train go, train go, train go by

Train go, train go, train go by

Just waiting on the train to go by

When we met it was the height of summer

Never thought that our days were numbered

Never thought we’d be here on this line

But for now we’re waiting

I’m gonna be the man that I once was

Was I ever more than enough?

Was I ever really up for this?

I’m waiting on the train to go

Train go, train go, train go by

Train go, train go, train go by

Train go, train go, train go by

Just waiting on the train to go by

Day after day the cars roll by

I wanna talk to her but I

Can’t seem to get the words quite right

And I know

She needs to hear me set things to straight

She needs me when it’s way past late

And I need to be there in the dark of night

But still I’m

I’ve never been so empty handed

Nothing turning out as I planned it

She’s disappointed, and I’m just mad

But for now we’re waiting, waiting

Love is patient, love is kind

They told us in a far off time

Now I’m her, and she’s still mine, still

We’re waiting, waiting on the train to go

Train go, train go, train go by

Train go, train go, train go by

Train go, train go, train go by

I’m just waiting on the train to go

Train go, train go, train go by

Train go, train go, train go by

Train go, train go, train go by

Just waiting on the train to go bye
