Dolly Parton - The Blue Train lyrics

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 Chorus: 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 Repeat chorus Away down the low road A ticket to an empty room A rendezvous unknown Repeat chorus
