[Verse 1]
They say the train leaves at night
We were lying in beds fingers tangled in the wires
Four ways blocked by August corn
Better board up the windows hide the gold inside the barn
[Verse 2]
I swear I hear her in the field
Drifters sneaking past the gate and looking for your steel
The rumors spread throughout the school
Of a saber tooth tiger swimming in the empty pool
[Bridge]
She was the river that collapsed the dam, she's walking on my land
Bows and arrows travеl speed of light
You keep propping up the kids, they're gonna suffocatе the fire
You go deeper in the woods, your signal never gets higher
[Verse 3]
And the pictures kept moving around the school
Of a wholly mammoth sunbathing by the pool
And the saber tooth smiling for the pictures looking cool
And the wooly mammoth sunbathes by the pool
[Bridge]
And they mix within moonlight where the lonely hearts move
And I hope I get baptized in a lake
Or coked-up Greenwich village
Or a Mardi Gras parade
Time is a new morning wrapped in weeds
Yeah, time means nothing if you can dream
Time is everything in between
[Outro]
I heard the train leaves at night
Leaves at night
Hale bop coming better put your best shoes on
Hale bop coming better put your best shoes on
We walked to the river singing whole lotta love
We walked to the river singing whole lotta love
We walked to the river singing whole lotta love
The train leaves at night
