Watching the long faces

Riding this run down track

And the lost places

From a dream that never brings them back

And the sad truth is

Nothing but a cold hard fact



I'm riding the blue train

Over the miles yet to cover

A ghost in a hurry to fade

I'm taking it one way to nowhere

Afraid you might be there

To find me inside this blue train



Counting the burned bridges

Trailing this rusted wreck

As our back pages

Scatter in the dust we left

Like a pearl necklace

Falling from around my neck



I'm riding the blue train

Over the miles yet to cover

A ghost in a hurry to fade

I'm taking it one way to nowhere

Afraid you might be there

To find me inside this blue train



Away down the low road

A ticket to an empty room

A rendezvous unknown



I'm riding the blue train

Over the miles yet to cover

A ghost in a hurry to fade

And I'm taking it one way to nowhere

Afraid you might be there

To find me inside this blue train



I'm riding the blue train

Over the miles yet to cover

A ghost in a hurry to fade

I'm taking it one way to nowhere

Afraid you might be there

To find me inside this blue train
